About this listen

In 1978, a chilling act of Cold War espionage unfolded on the streets of London when a Bulgarian dissident was assassinated with one of the strangest weapons in history, a modified umbrella tipped with deadly poison. This episode explores the shadowy world of political assassinations, spycraft, and how a single rainday accessory became a symbol of international intrigue.
