Description

In the dimly lit vault of a St. Louis banking house, the atmosphere is thick with desperation. Jim Stockes, the embattled owner, discovers that the two‑million‑dollar payment owed to the powerful cotton magnate Dick Patton has vanished. His trusted accountant, Peter Voß, remains unnervingly calm, accusing Stockes of reckless speculation and hinting at a daring solution.

Voß proposes an audacious scheme: he will become the very thief the firm needs, slipping the missing funds back into the safe under the cover of night. As he outlines the plan, the shadow of the infamous detective Bobby Dodd looms, promising a cat‑and‑mouse chase that could expose every secret. Listeners are drawn into a tense game of wits, where loyalty, greed, and survival clash in the bustling world of early‑20th‑century American finance.
