Voyage Through Darkness: Death at Sea and the Blackout Killer

Originally Aired: September 7, 1944

In Suspense #108, “Voyage Through Darkness,” a transatlantic crossing becomes a nightmare for Judith Webster, traveling companion to a wealthy widow whose sudden death in blackout-shrouded London sets the stage for murder and deceit at sea. As rumors swirl of a fugitive “blackout killer” aboard, Judith’s only confidant is a charming—but suspicious—fellow passenger who may not be who he claims. Danger closes in among dark passageways, shifting identities, and an empty casket destined for America. Olivia de Havilland and Reginald Gardiner star in this gripping maritime thriller of love, suspicion, and a deadly voyage into uncertainty.
