Carry On Kidnapping Part.4
2022-08-15
New York Times best-selling author Paul French reads the fourth and final part of our series this week; ‘Carry On Kidnapping’. It seems that bandit chief Pei might be willing to negotiate – just to get rid of Tinko Pawley!
We present a four-part serialisation of one of New York Times best-selling author Paul French’s stories from the ‘Post Magazine’. We’re heading back to 1932, to northern China, to a chaotic time when poverty, war, and desperation led to an epidemic of kidnappings by local bandits, eager to secure large ransoms. It was often pretty good business for them. That is, until the snatching of 19 year old English woman, Muriel ’Tinko’ Pawley. This was a big mistake for the bandit leader who thought she’d be easy money, as she was to become his worst nightmare. Paul now reads... 'Carry On Kidnapping'.
