I picked up some shows of this very fine espionage series, starring Herbert Marshall. The scripts are well written, I believe, because they had a major FILM
star at the helm. Marshall's voice just lends itself to radio.

How about ex-bandleader Leon Belasco as his shadow?!?!

Pagan Zeldchmidt played by Leon Belasco was a former bandleader?

No, actor Leon Belasco was a former bandleader.

Whoops, I worded it wrong; that's what I meant.

I tried listening to a couple of these but the foreign settings kind of put me off because I couldn't get a good mental image or understand some of the
espionage mumbo jumbo. Many of the Escape episodes lost me that way, too. I'm sure it's a great show for those who like foreign intrigue, but I'd
rather listen to a show about a murder in a fun house in Podunk, Iowa than a governmentally-influenced jewel heist in Madagascar.
