The Death Shot

A newlywed couple's Greek vacation becomes a nightmare when the husband accidentally takes pictures of a murder. The killer turns out to be a powerful politician, and now the husband and wife must figure out how to stay alive.

A honeymoon in Greece turns nightmarish as the husband photographs a murder par hasard. The killer is an important political leader and the couple must decide on a course to ensure their survival.

Bob Paislety sets up his camera to photograph the Parthenon. As he begins to shoot, a man falls from the top of the temple’s ruins. Bob’s new wife, Diana, claims the man was pushed. When the films are developed, Diana is proven to be correct. The pusher is shown to be Major Constantin Malas, chief hatchet man of the new dictatorship. The Paisleys realize what might happen to them if they take the photos to the authorities, but they do so anyway.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
