## Resource

A racket king disappears and is thought dead. His business partner is suspected by Lamont Cranston who investigates a funeral home as The Shadow. We seem to be obessed with death in our titles lately with the last podcast had Conversation with Death, the one before was Can The Dead Talk? This episode seems like the answer to that question. Commentary on the success of Blue Coal sales because of The Shadow as they begin a third season with the show. Plus. we welcome Marjorie Anderson as the new Margot lane taking over for Agnes Moorehead. Anderson will remain through Bill Johnstone's tenure with the show.
