Grace’s Cave

A short thriller out on BBC Radio 4 narrated by Halima Hussain

I havent had a birthday since I was ten years old. That makes me sound like Im immortal or a vampire, but its really not like that.

Kat is about to turn sixteen on the anniversary of her sister Grace’s disappearance 5 years ago and her anxious parents are on overdrive. Everything in Kat’s life since Grace failed to come home has been the result of loss; her life is defined by her sister’s absence.  When Kat goes out running with her dog her Mum insists that both she and the dog wear a GPS tracker at all times.

A message glimpsed on social media leads Kat to uncover the dark history of the local area – but will she find out what really happened to her sister that terrible night 5 years ago?
