Love Cluedo, Miss Marple, well get ready for our Murder, Mystery night of scripts. Introducing writer Sophie Flack's radio play 'The Brighton Racecourse Murder' an aging musician is found dead one morning on the track of the racecourse. Two middle-aged women, hard-bitten Detective Inspector Rheumes and aura-reading therapist Beth McGowen, reluctantly work together to discover secret family connections, fanatical fans and desperate publicists...

Following on from twisted plots, short play by first timer Danielle Wager A family man receives a telephone call out of the blue from an 'independent contractor' who has heard that he is looking for someone to help him get rid of his wife. But how exactly do you go about interviewing for this kind of position, and can you ever really trust someone who kills people for a living?
