First, the brilliant Belgian sleuth, Hercule Poirot, returns in "Trail Led to Death", originally broadcast on November 11th, 1945. When a reclusive antique dealer is found murdered in his London shop, Poirot must untangle a series of cryptic clues, including a rare Roman coin and a suspicious ledger entry. With Captain Hastings at his side, Poirot follow a trail that leads from dusty relics to a web of betrayal buried in the past.

Next, we join the debonair detective duo Nick and Nora Charles in, "The Case of the Moon Murder" aired November 25th, 1945, on "The Adventures of the Thin Man". While attending a glamorous party at an observatory, the Charlese's are drawn into a case involving a missing astronomer and a murder that takes place under the light of a full moon. As they probe the high-society suspects and scientific secrets, Nick and Nora discover that even the most glittering social circles can cast dark shadows. Les Tremayne stars as Nick Charles with Claudia Morgan as the ever-witty Nora. Supporting the case are Parker Fennelly, Betty Lou Gerson, and Leon Janney, brining charm and suspense to this stylish whodunit.
