We proudly present episode six, part 1 of “The Tenth Clew”, adapted by Pete Lutz from Dashiell Hammett’s sixth published Op story, in 1924. We hope you enjoy it and will join us for future episodes. 

The Tec is summoned to the home of a wealthy businessman, but his client never shows up — and later turns up murdered in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. Strewn about the victim are a number of strange objects, which puzzle the Tec and Detective Sgt. O’Gar for a not inconsiderable time. Part 1 of “The Tenth Clew” lays out these objects, and introduces a number of interesting characters…including an unforgettable love triangle! Join the Tec and O’Gar as they work to untangle the confusing web of clues/clews left behind by person or persons unknown!
