The Sulphur And Brimstone Matter
Originally Aired: April 6, 1954
Johnny Dollar #209, "The Sulphur And Brimstone Matter,"
Johnny Dollar heads to Venezuela when construction magnate Asa Travers dies under suspicious circumstances at the Sierra de Avari Dam project. Travers had reported sabotage attempts threatening to delay completion of the hydroelectric dam, which carries a costly time penalty clause covered by Eastern Indemnity's bond. When a supposed accidental dynamite explosion is followed by two .38 caliber bullets in Travers' body, Dollar's assignment becomes a murder investigation. Upon arrival, he's greeted by Travers' partner Getulio Matarsa, who cryptically suggests corrupt federal police may be orchestrating delays rather than physical sabotage.
At the construction site, Dollar encounters the confrontational strawboss Bill Anthony and Travers' surprisingly composed young widow, Philomena, who seems romantically involved with one of the men on site. As Dollar navigates a web of conflicting interests involving the federal Captain Boros, the construction deadline, and warnings from his guide Pedro about the dam being an evil that destroys men, he must determine whether Travers' death was motivated by sabotage, corruption, passion, or something darker lurking in the Venezuelan wilderness.
