A man inherits an inn and its family secrets when his grandmother dies. He learns of the fate of his missing father and what happened to him and his "fortune".

Entertaining episode. Tony Roberts played such a dull-witted fellow; I am not sure I would want him for a doctor without his wife coaching him along.

@ Alyssa you know what they say about the woman behind the man. Entertaining episode. Crime mystery, no supernatural elements.

Awesomely mysterious

Good show and good philosophies. Mystery Theaters was made by people who were highly educated in literature and often references writers from the past.

Very good radio play. The script title, recluse, in my opinion, isn't talking about the aunt that passed away.....I think it's talking about the long-dead father that's discovered in that secret room. I mean, how much more reclusive can u be than that?(LOL)

Dr. Tom Lodge, while settling the estate of his recently deceased grandmother, tells his wife, Nancy, a family secret he has kept for six years—that his father had stolen $75,000 from the bank in which he worked and disappeared. While inspecting his grandfather’s large home, Tom discovers his father’s skeleton, the head of which had been bashed in. Patricia sees it as a clear case of murder and points out that if Tom can solve it, he might be able to clear his father’s name.

It was good.

Very good episode. The doctor was a little slow on the uptake good thing he had the wife along.

Great follow up from the news on the last episode. Could've made a good RMT episode.
