Story
From the imaginative radio mind of writer/producer Jim French comes the tough-but-thoughtful private eye who roams the rain-swept streets of the Pacific Coast in search of crime, adventure, and enough dough to keep the office lights on for another month - Harry Nile! It's modern radio drama produced in the classic style, with stories set in the golden age of private-eye drama. Phil Harper stars as Harry in high-powered, hard-luck radio adventures! The 21 episodes featured here include the last show of the character's 1970s run, and the first 20 episodes of his glorious return in 1990.

Story
Out of the rain and fog of the teeming Pacific Northwest he comes - the tough, methodical, incorruptible private eye Harry Nile. He's the foe of corruption, enemy of gangland, and the best friend you'll ever have when you're up against the wall. Harry gives as good as he gets in this collection of powerful radio adventures, produced, written, and directed by Jim French. Larry Albert takes over the role of Nile from the late Phil Harper, with Pat French back as the detective's assistant Murphy, for 16 cases of back streets and bad news.

nice stories to hear while I'm going to sleep. theyre short enough to hear most, or all of it, in one time period. I've bought at least a half dozen.

Story
When Elizabeth Keane returns to Ireland after her mother’s death, she’s focused only on saying goodbye to that dark and dismal part of her life. Her childhood home is packed solid with useless junk, her mother’s presence already fading. But within this mess, she discovers a small stash of letters — and ultimately, the truth. Forty years earlier, a young woman stumbles from a remote stone house, the night quiet except for the constant wind that encircles her as she hurries deeper into the darkness away from the cliffs and the sea.

Very well worth a listen. I was rapt.
Reviewed: 02-02-22
This story kept me awake at night. A touching, very human story. Mr. Norton does a great job with voices. I wouldn't be surprised if he started out as an actor. However, both the former Cork neighbor and Mrs Foley sounded a bit too much alike. Yet, I still think it merits 5*.

I read the lion , the witch, and the wardrobe 20 some years ago. I wish I'd known of Cs Lewis as a child. What imagination! It's especially nice listening to the stories. I will reread these again someday.
