MP3 Audios - Arts and Drama

Richard Derrington and Deborah McAndrew star in this thrilling Radio 4 dramatisation of P.D. James' enduringly popular mystery.

When two men are discovered with their throats cut in the vestry of St Matthew's Church, the police are faced with an intriguing challenge.  For one of the victims was ex-Government minister Sir Paul Berowne, the other Harry Mack, a local tramp and alcoholic. 

For Commander Adam Dalgliesh the case is particularly affecting - he had known Berowne, and the minister had asked for his help regarding an anonymous letter shortly before his resignation.
