Latest / Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar — John Lund Era (1952–1954)
The Costain Matter
Aired: Jun 2nd, 1953. A wave of high-end shoplifting has hit Toledo's finest boutiques, and federal insurance investigator Johnny Dollar is called in to sort it out. What starts as a routine theft case turns into an oddly intimate character study when police realize every stolen item — dresses, coats, even eyeshadow — is being chosen with an eerie eye for one very specific woman's coloring. Johnny teams up with local detectives to profile a thief who steals with the precision of a personal shopper, in a case that's as much about deduction as it is about deductibles.
