Det bliver den mest berygtede uopklarede drabssag under Den Kolde Krig.Mange år senere bliver den unge journalist Ulrik Skotte kontaktet og får rystende nye oplysninger om en dansk statsborger, der menes at stå bag drabet – en spion med kodenavnet Piccadilly, der arbejdede for den bulgarske efterretningstjeneste. Mødet kaster Ulrik Skotte ud i en intens jagt på morderen.

In 1978 the Bulgarian author and dissident Georgi Markov was assassinated by a poisoned umbrella on Waterloo Bridge in London. His murder is the most iconic killing in almost five decades of the Cold War, and no one has ever been prosecuted for it. The Umbrella Murder reveals the real architect and hit man behind this spectacular killing: a spy code-named Piccadilly who worked for the Bulgarian secret service and the KGB, who has been hiding for more than forty years.
