Dead Hand

BBC Radio Ulster - Storytellers, Dead Hand, 2. Zero Sum

DS Murray believes she has found the killer, but Greg is not convinced.

A killer has returned. A young man is missing. But do the police have the right suspect?

A contemporary thriller set in Northern Ireland written by Stuart Drennan.

Greg is the host of a true crime podcast dedicated to uncovering the identity of a serial killer, last active over twenty years ago, known only as Dead Hand - a killer is named after a mysterious radio transmission which has been broadcasting an indecipherable code. The code uses the voices of Dead Hand’s victims; including Greg’s missing father. However, when a new voice is added to the broadcast, Greg realises that Dead Hand is active again. With time already running out, can he finally crack the code and catch the killer?
