Language: EnglishKeywords: BBC Drama Radio Written by Edward Boyd Format: MP3 Bitrate: 128 Kbps Dramatization Edward Boyd wrote a trilogy of 6-part radio thrillers starring Teddy Johnson as Korean War veteran and adventurer Steve Gardiner. They were âThe Candle of Darknessâ in 1968, âEnough Fingers to Make a Handâ in 1969 and âThe Wolf Far Henceâ in 1971. Unfortunately âEnough Fingers to Make a Handâ has been lost from the BBC Archives; collected here are the other two vintage serials. Boyd wrote the serial thrillers to be reminiscent of Chandleresque American radio thrillers of the era, and our hero also addresses us directly. Boyd won a Writerâs Guild Award for the trilogy. The Candle of Darkness Steve Gardiner arrives in a small Scottish seaside resort, looking for his old friend Jimmy Morton. But he’s picked the wrong time for a reunion. The sleepy town is being terrorised by a homicidal maniac dubbed ‘the Kind Man’, and panic stalks the streets. Stepping off the train after dark, Steve is almost lynched by a terrified crowd, and at the gloomy Morton house he finds Jimmy and his father Wilfred behaving strangely. Then, waking in the night, he hears a voice whispering verses in his ear… Jimmy’s heard the voice too. He claims it belongs to a dead man: Francis Lennox. A local poet and his close friend, they were in the same prison camp in Korea - but only Jimmy made it home. But what really happened there, and could it be linked to the killings? Can the Kind Man be caught before he strikes again?
