Slip into the smoky world of noir with The Adventures of Sam Spade, radio’s most sardonic and street-smart detective. In this thrilling episode, “The Calcutta Trunk Caper,” Spade finds himself tangled in a web of deceit, danger, and double-crosses that begin with an innocent-looking piece of luggage — and end with murder.

Originally broadcast in the late 1940s and starring the incomparable Howard Duff as Sam Spade, this story is dripping with all the classic elements of the hard-boiled detective genre: razor-sharp wit, femme fatales, and a hero who never backs down — even when the odds are stacked higher than a pile of poker chips in a backroom saloon.

🎙️ Featuring: Howard Duff as Sam Spade

🕰️ Original Air Date: Circa 1948
