Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives)

Episode 242 - Pat-a-Cake (Pat Novak For Hire)

10 Sep 2017

Description

If you head down to Pier 19 at the San Francisco waterfront, you'll find Pat Novak For Hire renting boats and doing anything else to keep a few steps ahead in one of radio's best noir detective dramas. Featuring duplicitous dames, gun-toting toughs, and dialogue right out of a pulp novel, the series packed a punch then and now. Jack Webb stars as Novak in a pair of episodes: "Father Leahy" and "Geranium Plant." Then, Ben Morris is Novak in "The Mysterious Set of Books" (originally aired on ABC on August 10, 1947).
