Henry Kane's P.I. Peter Chambers first appeared in print with A Halo for Nobody in 1947; more than thirty books followed. The glib, playboy-ish Chambers proved to be popular with many readers, but the tongue-in-cheek presentation also turned off many. As the character's popularity waned in the late Sixtie's, the author "rebooted" the Chambers in a series of rather innocuous soft-porn mysteries.
In 1954, Pete Chambers hit the NBC radio air-waves with a short-lived series starring Dane Clark. Crome and Peter Chambers was a half-hour show produced, directed, and written by Kane. It ran for some 23 episodes, from April 6 through September 7, 1954 for 23 episodes.
In this, the first episode of the series, millionaire nightclub owner Bruce Burke has sent the beautiful Elsa Corey to kill Pete Chambers, but it was Burke who ended up dead.
Enjoy.
