The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: "The Living Doll", "The Disappearing Scientists" v. 17

From 1939 to 1946 the world gathered around the radio to listen to The New Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes - featuring Basil Rathbone as the highly strung crime-solver and Nigel Bruce as his phlegmatic assistant. Witty, fast-paced, and always surprising, these great radio plays - scripted by the prolific writing team of Anthony Boucher and Denis Green - are as fresh today as they were then. The latest audio technology has been employed to bring the best possible quality and fidelity to these original performances, which feature nostalgic war-time announcements, original narrations and radio commercials. Volume Seventeen presents two classic tales: The Living Doll Voodoo at a bee farm? That's exactly what Sherlock Holmes finds when one of his neighbours on Sussex Downs falls victim to a terrible curse. Now Holmes must leave his beloved bees and follow the scent of witchcraft - and murder! The Disappearing Scientists I shall not leave london until this case is solved!' Sherlock Holmes was ready for retirement when he was called on to find four vanished scientitsts. But the mystery turns infuriating when three reappear - without a clue to where they've been.
