A murder mystery in neon utopia. A 13-episode science fiction audio drama by Lux Radium.

While ace reporter Nan Kanally and the rest of the world struggle through post-war poverty, Metropolis has assembled a neon utopia on an icy, distant island. It’s an electronic heaven made possible by a fleet of astonishing autonomous robots.

But Metropolis holds its secrets tightly. The only word that gets out is from the few reporters they invite. One of them is Nan’s best friend, the sportswriter Stanley Bronfels. But when Stanley disappears, it falls to Nan to discover the secrets of Metropolis… or find oblivion herself.

Things aren’t great in Arnhem. Nobody seems that interested in putting back together what the war has blasted apart, and now the city has started smelling like literal horse manure. All anyone has to look forward to are dispatches from Metropolis - that mysterious, shining, robot-powered city in the Arctic where everyone seems to have it all figured out.

But do they? The Arnhem Fact-Gazette newspaper has a man on the ground there - Stanley Bronfels - but he’s just a sportswriter, and he’s definitely not being encouraged to dig for muck when there are diamonds to swallow and magic robots to describe.

But Stan’s best friend is Nan Kanally - the ace reporter for the paper back in Arnhem - and she has a way of getting you to do things you might not ordinarily do. That’s why Stan likes her so much. Does he know what she’s about to get him into?

It’s been weeks, and no word from Stanley, just the clanging sounds of that ominous recording echoing in Nan’s ears. Was it a taunt? What was it, exactly? There is nothing in the world that Nan wants to do more than to go figure it out and find Stan, but there’s one problem: he was in Metropolis, and one does not simply walk into Metropolis. Until one morning, Zora arrives in the office with an envelope...
