The Glove in the Rain: Theater Billing, Fraud-and Murder

A dry cream kid glove found in a soaked alley held a billing card that placed "Lori Leigh" fifty-eight miles away on a night Lori Leigh could not have been - and inside the Monarch Theatre a woman was found strangled, costume still on, makeup case closed. Who used Lori Leigh's name to collect secret booking fees, and how did that fraud lead to murder?

In this episode, we follow the discovery at the Monarch Theatre, the contradictions in Lori Leigh's bookings, and Detective Eric Andrews's methodical pursuit from a paper glove to hidden advances in Leigh's notebook. What does a mismatched billing card, a pattern of unauthorized payments, and three repeated initials in a private ledger reveal about motive?
