Originally Aired: January 16, 1947 In Suspense #228, “Overture in Two Keys,” the young and intense Mark Allen arrives to study music under a once-great conductor now nearly deaf. But when Mark begins an affair with his teacher’s wife, their passion turns into a deadly plan. After a tragic car accident leaves the husband dead, Mark and Franzie believe they’ve escaped justice—until Mark, now on the brink of his conducting debut, begins hearing a bell only he can hear. A story of guilt, madness, and music, anchored by a haunting performance from Joan Bennett.
