My Dear Niece

Originally Aired: January 24, 1946 In Suspense #177, “My Dear Niece,” Dame Mae Whitty stars as Emily Rogers, a lonely widow who answers a seemingly harmless newspaper ad offering part-time work. Soon she is drawn into a shadowy scheme involving a fugitive masquerading as a writer, a dead man named Paul Stevens, and a criminal mastermind hiding behind the alias “Mr. Bruce.” Told as a chilling letter to her niece, Emily recounts how she unknowingly harbored a murderer in her home, only to discover that family ties, betrayal, and deception were far closer to her than she ever imagined. A cleverly constructed tale of menace and revelation.
