Hello and welcome to another episode of nostalgic mystery radio. I'm your host, Stevie Kay, and it's my honor to bring you the great radio shows of yesteryear.

For today's episode, I bring you that great Belgian detective Hercules Perot in Death in the Golden Gate, originally aired May 17, 1945, where Perot attends a peace conference

in San Francisco, and witnesses a kidnapping, and finds himself involved in international intrigue

with the fate of the world at stake. So, sit back and relax, and I hope you enjoy this nostalgic mystery radio.

Thank you for listening. Time and a little gray cells. They will always catch the criminal.

Agatha Christie's Poirot!

From the thrill-packed pages of Agatha Christie's, unforgettable stories of corpses, clues, and crime,

complete with bowler hat and magnificent mustache, your favorite detective, Hercule Poirot,

in death, in the Golden Gate.

Tonight's story of detective fiction finds Erichuil Poirot in San Francisco at the time of the United Nations conference.

Really, Mr. Poirot, you don't have to take me to dinner.

All I asked for was an interview.

No, no, no, but I insist.

I owe you one dinner, Miss Blaine, for the great compliment you have paid me.

With San Francisco so full of international personalities,

I did not think anyone would even notice the presence of an unimportant Belgian detective.

Unimportant?

Oh, come now, Mr. Quarrow, you're too modest.

Oh, but of course.

Modesty is one of the many qualities

for which I am just famous.

Ah, was he.
