Your Devoted Wife: A Birthday, A Will, and Thirty Days
Originally Aired: June 20, 1946
In Suspense #198, “Your Devoted Wife,” Melissa Thornton, seemingly a caring spouse, secretly takes her sick husband Martin on an overnight train to a Chicago clinic, after quietly administering him sleeping pills. Her gentle act masks a cold, calculated plan linked to Martin’s upcoming 30th birthday and a significant inheritance. However, when the clinic finds no health issues and instead delivers a fatal diagnosis—“at most thirty days”—the balance of power shifts. What began as subtle domestic manipulation escalates into a chilling countdown, as love, greed, and mortality collide on the steel rails and within sterile exam rooms.
