A suspenseful full-cast BBC radio adaptation of Patricia
Highsmith's classic psychological thriller When Guy Haines meets
Charles Bruno in the dining car of a Texas-bound train, they share
their secrets in the way that only strangers can. Charles confides
his hatred for his controlling father, Guy confesses that he is
divorcing his unfaithful wife. As the drink flows and the
conversation turns darker, Charles proposes the perfect solution to
both their problems - a murder swap - and Guy laughingly agrees.
Back home, he quickly forgets their drunken pact: but Charles does
not. Soon Guy is facing a nightmarish choice - fulfil his part of
the bargain, or be framed for a murder he didn't commit...

Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the
Discworld, a parallel time and place which might sound and smell
very much like our own, but which looks completely different...
Collected together for the first time are seven full-cast BBC Radio
dramatisations of Terry Pratchett's novels, with star-studded casts
including Martin Jarvis, Sheila Hancock, Anton Lesser, Philip
Jackson, Alex Jennings and Mark Heap. Now being published for the
very first time, the adaptations in this collection are: Mort
Hopeless young peasant Mort is hired as an apprentice to Death.
He'll have free board, use of the company horse, and being dead
isn't even compulsory. In fact, it's a dream job - until he
discovers that it can be a killer on his love life... Wyrd Sisters
Three witches meet on a blasted heath. A king is cruelly murdered.
A child heir and the kingdom's crown are both missing. But Granny
Weatherwax finds that meddling in royal politics is a lot more
complicated than certain playwrights would have you believe...
Guards! Guards! In Ankh-Morpork, the Haves and the Have-Nots are
about fall out. Again. The Night Watch's Captain Vimes is used to
this but when the Have-Nots find the key to a lethal, dormant
weapon that even they don't understand, he knows it's time so sober
up. Eric When precocious young Eric Thursley summons a demon from
the loathsome pit to fulfil his every wish, he wants what everyone
wants - immortality, to rule the world, and have the most beautiful
woman love him. Instead he gets Rincewind, the Disc's most
incompetent wizard. Small Gods On the Discworld, Gods are as
numerous as herring roe, all elbowing for space at the top. In such
a competitive environment, you need an acolyte, and fast. For the
Great God Om, Brutha is the Chosen One, or at least the only One
available... Night Watch Living in the past is hard. Dying in the
past is incredibly easy, especially when there is a serial killer
on the loose who targets coppers. Commander Sam Vimes of the City
Watch is back in his own rough, tough past, and he has a job to do.
***Bonus Story*** In addition to these Discworld novels, this
collection will also include a full-cast dramatisation of Only You
Can Save Mankind, from the Johnny Maxwell series. As an alien fleet
crosses his computer screen, Johnny prepares to blow the ScreeWee
into a million pieces... 'The voice cast is fantastic' - Starburst
