This week: John Carson as Roger Sheringham investigates the case of
"The Avenging Chance"
by John Gould, based on a story by Anthony Berkeley.
Also starring Allan Cuthbertson, Jennifer Jayne, Marian Spencer, Tony Steedman.

This play is set in the West End of London in the nineteen-thirties. It appears that there are a large number of people who would be glad to see Sir William Anstruther dead. The question is who? Roger Sheringham is determined to find out. Unhappily he has hardly started his investigations when a tragedy, in which an innocent woman dies, takes place.
