Trinidad: as dusk falls, a father sets out into the bush in search of his missing 13-year-old son. Read by Don Warrington.

Don Warrington begins Claire Adam's heartrending and lyrical debut set in Trinidad.

As dusk falls, a father sets out into the bush in search of his 13-year-old son, while his twin brother remains safely at home.

As the man makes his way through the lush yet unsettling landscape, he tries to work out what has happened to his son, the boy he's never really understood. And when the minutes turn to hours and then to days, he is faced with an impossible decision that no parent should ever have to make...

Omnibus of the first five of ten parts abridged by Sara Davies.
