I'm Carl Miller, the host of the podcast Kill List.
One night, a hacker breaks into a dark web murder for hiresight, uncovering a chilling cache of documents called the Kill List.
It details hundreds of names around the globe, complete with faces, addresses, as well as payments and instructions for their murders.
When a murder disguised as a suicide shakes a quiet suburb, a hacker connects the victim to the Kill List.
With local police slow to act, he.
Turns to an unsuspecting investigative journalist to help.
That's me.
When law enforcement decide not to investigate, our team is forced to take matters into our own hands.
A decision that plunges us into a high stakes race to warn those whose lives are in danger.
And it turns out, convincing a total stranger that someone wants them dead is not easy.
I'm about to play a clip from Kill List.

All right, you ready?
Yep.
It's a Thursday afternoon and I'm on a call with one of my producers.
The road outside my house is almost totally silent.
On my computer, I open Chris's document.
Oh, wow.
There's a lot on here.
