What was the title of that episode? I know there's a
half-hour episode called "The Poisonville Caper," which I
presume is adapted from RED HARVEST, and there was two-parter
called "The Blood Money Caper" which, of course, derived from
the first Op novel, BLOOD MONEY. Also, many of the Op short
stories were adapted for the SPADE series, but usually with
the original titles either wholly intact (e.g. "Zigzags of
Treachery") or easily recognizable (e.g. "The Corkscrew
Caper"). What did they call THE DAIN CURSE when they adapted
it for radio?
