The Killing


Good morning, Mr. Phelps.  We recently learned that, in order to carry out the underworld's policy of enforcement, this man, Burt Gordon, has set up an organization similar to the old Murder, Inc.  Gordon will arrange for the disposal of anyone, anywhere for a price.  The victims always disappear with no evidence of foul play and the body is never recovered.  Although we are sure Gordon is the man behind this murder ring, he has kept himself so far removed from the actual killings, we are unable to pin anything on him.  Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to prove Gordon is in fact a killer, and put him away for good.  As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.  Please destroy this recording in the usual manner.  Good luck, Jim.
