Summary
By Helen Cross. Rose is beginning to regret her part in Maya's transformation, and she's suspicious about Maya's plans for a 'rejuvenation' spa in the California Hills. She can see that Maya is already deeply in love with the night. But Rose's first task is to check on baby Gully. Is he behind the telepathic messages she keeps getting?
Stylish and surprising fantasy horror with a comic twist, starring Alexandra Mardell (Coronation Street) and Demetri Goritsas (Ten Percent). With music by Dana Margolin and Sam Yardley of Mercury-nominated band, Porridge Radio.
Helen Cross wrote ‘My Summer of Love’ which won a Betty Trask award and was made into a Bafta-winning film with Emily Blunt (recently rated her best film in The Guardian top ten Emily Blunt films). Mary Ward-Lowery won Best Director in 2020 Audio Drama Awards.
