Georgi Markov & the Umbrella Assassination Part 2

Episode 2.3: Georgi Markov & the Umbrella Assassination Part 2

In Part 1 of our episode on Georgi Markov, we heard tale of a James Bond-style assassination on the streets of London: a secret agent wielding an umbrella to deliver a lethal dose of poison. But as we discover in Part 2, there is far more to this case than meets the eye. Behind the headlines, an extraordinary series of events unfolded in a shadowy world of spies, cops, dissidents, and a secret chemical weapons facility … events that make us question what we think we know about the “Umbrella Assassination.”
