A policeman is dead and Inspector Barlach has a hunch about the murderer. Bernard Hepton reads Friedrich D眉rrenmatt's novella
No ordinary case, when a policeman is murdered.
No ordinary case, when the suspect is a highly respected diplomat.
No ordinary case, when the man in charge of it is the slow-footed, quick-witted Inspector Barlach of the Berne Police.
Extraordinary, when he has only a short while to live and a formidable wager to win at the same time.
Friedrich D眉rrenmatt's thrilling tale of lifelong rivalry, first published in 1951,
Read by Bernard Hepton.
Producer Maurice Leitch
