THE VOICE ON THE WIRE

an Inner Sanctum mystery

On a sparsely populated narrow island lives Geraldine Reeves, widow of composer David Reeves. A few hundred yards away stands the charred remains of the house her husband died in. But two years later, Geraldine still hears her husband's compositions and his dogs howling. She then receives a mysterious phone call, with a voice that sounds like David’s. Is he haunting her from beyond the grave?
