The Lineup

The Cully Price Payroll Case

von

The Lineup is a police procedural set in San Francisco, following Lieutenant Ben Guthrie and Inspector Matt Grebb as they investigate crimes and work to identify the people responsible. The title evokes the methodical business of police work: gathering evidence, questioning suspects, and piecing together a case.

Episodes unfold as dramatic radio stories, with dialogue and sound effects bringing investigators, witnesses, and suspects into the scene. The program’s focus is on the progress of an investigation rather than a single narrator’s account, giving listeners a close view of the questions and decisions that move a case forward.

Its appeal lies in the grounded crime-drama atmosphere and the steady movement from uncertainty toward a solution. This recording is identified as “The Cully Price Payroll Case,” offering a case-centered entry into the series’ world of San Francisco police investigations.
