Assassins and Hit-men - Radio Plays
We don't often meet with these guys today, luckily...but they are still around. When there are multi-million pound contracts in the offing, businessmen sometimes go missing. And in earlier centuries, it was more blatant - as the story of Thomas Becket illustrates...
