' BLACK DEATH'

on BBC Home Service Basic

by Anthony Gilbert
Produced by Archie Campbell
The place, London; Time, the present
Blackmailers, like modern dictators, are not averse to dabbling in the contemporary game of brinkmanship. They, too, are sometimes tempted to overplay their hands. And when the victims happen to be four determined people with distinguished reputations to lose-and the happiness of their families at stake-the peril to the criminal can be deadly.
