Title: The truth that killed
First published: 1983
Description: When we heard that a political refugee had been killed in London by an assassin using an umbrella gun, we wondered what was behind it. This book is the story, and Georgi Markov was the refugee. He was a member of Bulgaria's ruling elite, and moved in the highest circles. When he wrote his memoirs, not complimentary, his life was forfeit.
