Mystery Is My Hobby
Murder with a Boomerang
by
Mystery Is My Hobby stars Glenn Langan as Barton Drake, a wealthy amateur detective whose curiosity draws him into cases involving murder and other crimes. Drake approaches each mystery with the confidence and resources of a man accustomed to getting answers, while the people he encounters bring their own secrets and motives.
The program is a radio detective drama, built around a new case for Drake to investigate. Listeners follow the clues through dialogue, suspicious circumstances, and the gradual uncovering of what happened. The title supplied here, “Murder with a Boomerang,” points to a murder mystery, though the episode’s specific events are not described.
The series combines the familiar pleasures of a classic whodunit with a polished, urbane lead character. Its appeal lies in listening alongside Drake as he tests explanations and works toward a solution, with suspense carried by the performances and the unfolding investigation.
