Description

Frances has always been driven by one goal: elite university. But when she meets Aled, a shy genius behind her favourite podcast, she discovers a new freedom. He unlocks the door to Real Frances, and for the first time, she experiences true friendship, unafraid to be herself.

As the podcast goes viral, the fragile trust between them is broken, and Frances' dreams come crashing down. She's caught between who she was and who she longs to be, and must confront her past to find a way forward. Meanwhile, Aled is fighting his own dark secrets, and it's only by facing up to his fears that he can overcome them.

Radio Silence is a powerful coming-of-age story that tackles issues of identity, the pressure to succeed, and the importance of freedom to choose. With courage and determination, Frances must find a way to be true to herself and overcome the secrets that have held her back.
