A contract killer is tasked with eliminating the blackmailer of a rich property developer. This results in a subtle game of confusion that takes place on the night train from London to Edinburgh. Only a few passengers gather in the last carriage in front of the luggage compartment, seemingly by chance, when suddenly an unknown person is found shot dead. The murderer must be found among the passengers. But who is who? Bastian Pastewka enthusiastically experienced the first broadcast of this crime thriller by Rod Beacham in 1986 on the then Süddeutscher Rundfunk (now SWR). Image source: Boris Breuer
