Episode 2
A Republican agent in the Spanish Civil war is a hunted man - implicated in a young girl’s murder in England. Stars Alun Raglan.
Edgar Dominguez faces accusations of the murder of Elsie Griffiths whilst at the Spanish Embassy but flees and is hiding from the police.
Determined to avenge her murder and complete his deal, Dominguez turns from the hunted to the hunter.
The conclusion of Graham Greene's masterful tale of suspense.
When Edgar Dominguez has been sent to England on a mission to arrange a supply of coal for the Republicans in the Spanish Civil War it seems a straightforward business negotiation; but no sooner has he set foot on English soil he's found himself a hunted man, with seemingly no one he can trust and implicated in the murder of a young girl.
