5 Minute Mystery

1901–1948 · 121 episodes · 185 listens

The Five Minute Mysteries radio series was broadcast on the MBS (Mutual Broadcasting System) from 1947 to 1950. Similar to the Ellery Queen One Minute Mysteries, in every show you are the detective. By listening to every word carefully, and evaluating all of the clues, at the conclusion you can pit your wits against the investigator to identify the suspect and solve the case. These shows are such good fun if you love a mystery and you're short on time - a great little show for budding detectives!
