Draw Batons by Bill Knox. BBC RADIO DRAMA

Draw Batons
A used-car dealer is found murdered in the middle of a model railway - a community exhibition organised by local police. Before long, the murder becomes linked with the threat of a major crime planned by a gang of men who quickly show themselves ready to kill again. Against the backdrop of a city invaded by football fans arriving for an international match, Thane and Moss struggle to find the truth. Backstreet death and violence punctuate their progress. The football match is just one piece of a jigsaw that climaxes in an art heist of unparalleled magnitude.
