After being injured in the earthquake, Concetta Salierno still doesn't remember who is the father of the child she is expecting. To avoid disgrace, her family have hurriedly married her off to Felice Totila. Only 15 years old, and away from her mother and sisters for the first time, Concetta struggles to get to know this strange boy who is nothing to her and yet must be everything. Sian Thomas reads this historical mystery by Maria Allen. Abridged and produced by Jane Marshall Productions for BBC Radio 4.
