When George Sanders announced that he was leaving the FALCON series, RKO Radio came up with the perfect replacement: Sanders' own brother, Tom Conway. The transition was handled with style in THE FALCON'S BROTHER, with private detective Gay Lawrence (Sanders), aka The Falcon, incapacitated early in the proceedings.
Gay Lawrence (George Sanders) is the debonair and ruthless amateur detective known only as The Falcon. He learns that his brother Tom (Tom Conway) has been reported murdered on a ship arriving from South America. The Falcon swoops to investigate and stalks the would-be murderers before learning that his brother is still alive. His hunt leads him into murky waters with a variety of spies, spivs, and racketeers arriving into New York. The Falcon pursues the gangsters and comes off worse when protecting a diplomat, so the scene is set for the Falcon's mantle to be passed to his brother. When Tom takes over the case, his investigations lead to the doors of a fashion magazine and a ring of Nazi spies...
