The Saturday Play: Death at the Desert Inn

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The Desert Inn, scene of one of Noel Coward's greatest cabaret triumphs, is the setting for a "highly probable Noel Coward murder mystery", complete with Judy Garland, a showgirl, a Broadway agent, an unlikely croupier, and a US Congressman. Another crime to be solved with the Master's favourite weapon: wit.
