This gripping detective murder mystery, brought to our stage by America’s premier radio theater company, begins on a steamy August night in a small Southern town, where the body of a wealthy white man is discovered. Police arrest a black stranger passing through town, only to learn that he is a respected homicide detective. The detective reluctantly finds himself working with the chief of police to solve the murder, while wrestling with the fear, hatred, and prejudices prevalent in the deep South in the 1960s. John Ball’s timely novel became an Oscar-winning film and an Emmy Award-winning television show.
