Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: crime
Character(s): Bertha Cracken (Norman's wife, death); Bert Collie (game show host); Norman Cracken (villain); Sally (villain, former actress, poses as Norman's wife)
Synopsis: Norman and Sally conspire to kill Norman's wife so that they can go off and be together in New York. Sally had undergone plastic surgery to look just like Bertha and studied her voice from recordings in order to fool everyone and now it was up to Norman to kill Bertha with an axe, which he does. After flying to New York and checking in to a hotel with "his wife", the couple attend the filming of a radio game show, and are chosen as contestants, and win $3000. To their horror, they learn that a crew is back at Norman's back yard in Ohio, burying the treasure: right where Norman buried his wife!
