Murder by Moonlight and Other Mysteries

New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes Volumes 19-24

By: Anthony Boucher, Denis Green

Narrated by: Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce

From 1939-1946 Americans gathered around their radio to listen to The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes -- featuring Basil Rathbone as the high-strung crime solver and Nigel Bruce as his phlegmatic assistant, Dr. Watson.

Witty, fast-paced and always surprising, these great radio plays, written by the prolific writing team of Anthony Boucher and Denis Green, are as fresh today as they were then.

The latest audio technology was employed to bring the best audio quality and fidelity to the original performances, which feature nostalgic wartime announcements, original commercials and radio narrations.

• The Book of Tobit and Murder Beyond the Mountains
•

Another great performance

Sherlock and Dr. Watson are as advertised by the actors. Stories are well written. Too many commercials and dislike having to write and share reviews. If have to do this may cancel my subscription.

Good, but Dated

I enjoyed this collection, but was also disappointed. Some portions seemed trite, others dated, and few parts were "gripping." As a great piece of nostalgia, very good. But for me it had low "fire."

Wonderfully Entertaining

As a true fan of the Sherlock Holmes movies, I found Murder By Moonlight and Other Mysteries a wonderful collection to my radio programs. The stories are great and introduce a new Sherlock Holmes in Tom Conway. A delight to listen to. I hope that Audible can get a hold of many more of the Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce, Sherlock Holmes Radio Programs.
