The Plan

Originally Aired: May 16, 1946 In Suspense #193, “The Plan,” newlywed Helen Anderson thinks she’s safeguarding her respectable life when her husband’s long-hidden, dangerous brother arrives unexpectedly—only to find herself ensnared in a scheme of mistaken identities, loaded dueling pistols, and a murder meant to erase the past. As Helen’s story unfolds under police questioning, the truth twists: the “brother” isn’t the real threat, and the careful plot to pass a corpse as someone else begins to crumble when madness resurfaces. A taut domestic noir where every reassurance is a setup and every alibi has a crack.
