Book at Bedtime - Before The Earthquake - Episode 7

There was panic in the village after Concetta's sisters disappeared from the fields without trace, but they have been found safe and well after having been held overnight by two men they met at carnuale. However, according to the strict code of the Italian village, their reputations have been ruined. And whilst it emerges that Nunzia stayed with her sister to make sure that no harm befell her, Immacolata's intentions appear far less straightforward. Sian Thomas reads this atmospheric mystery by Maria Allen. Abridged and produced by Jane Marshall Productions for BBC Radio 4.
