December 9th, 1980. Hours after Mark David Chapman murdered John Lennon, police found something terrifying in his apartment: a detailed assassination list with all four Beatles members. John Lennon's name was crossed out. Paul McCartney's name was circled in red with "NEXT - LONDON" written underneath. FBI files, declassified after 42 years, reveal that Paul McCartney was under federal protection for 730 days without ever knowing his life was in danger. Chapman had built a network of conspirators across the US and UK, all planning to systematically murder every Beatles member. In March 1981, Paul came within minutes of being killed at Abbey Road Studios when Chapman's UK operative David Walsh waited outside with a loaded weapon. This is the incredible classified story of how the FBI and Scotland Yard conducted the most intensive celebrity protection operation in history to save Paul McCartney from Chapman's assassination network.
