Murder at the BBC? It's almost unimaginable...

When a beautiful studio manager is murdered, the producer's only concern is the filling the dead air on the broadcast. But Charles Paris, the now famous actor/detective has come to give a talk, and ends up wallowing through layers of BBC scandals, eventually uncovering a complicated fraud. 

The clues concealed in seemingly normal announcements lead to a situation that could be the end of Mr. Paris in The Dead Side of the Mic.
