BBC Radio 4 Extra - November Dead List, Series 1, 1. Dead or Alive?

A detective investigates a murder in London's Catholic community. Stars Nicola Walker.

4 Extra Debut. A priest receives a list of the departed to pray for, to find they are people he knows are alive – for now. Stars Nicola Walker.

Nicola Walker stars as a detective in Nick Perry's gritty five-part crime drama.
 
Each Roman Catholic parish compiles a Book of the Dead from the lists of departed loved ones submitted by parishioners. 

Printed on the front of the envelopes are three words: 

November Dead List. 

A young priest opens one such envelope and discovers - not a list of the dead but a list of people he knows to be alive, and members of his congregation. 

At first he thinks it's someone's idea of a joke. Then the people named start turning up dead.
