The Warrah by Lucy Catherine.
As the 30th anniversary of the Falklands conflict approaches, the war of words between Britain and Argentina has, in recent weeks, become increasingly heated. In this story, writer Lucy Catherine digs deep into the spirit of the place to tell a personal story of young woman's unexpected and unsettling encounter with the islands' past.
