Guilt

Written by Heather Burnside

Narrated by Cora Kirk

I know who you are...

Laura Sharples has worked hard for every penny she's earned, and is now a successful businesswoman who runs a handful of designer fashion boutiques. But it wasn't so long ago that she called herself Crystal and worked the streets of Manchester. Though she's put her past firmly behind her, she's never forgotten what it took to beat her addictions and raise her daughter, Candice, to expect better.

I know what you did...

Candice is proud of how her mum turned her life around, but when her boutiques are targeted in a series of attacks, the stress takes its toll on Laura. Candice fears her mum may be falling back into her old habits in order to cope, and it's driving a wedge between them. Luckily, her boyfriend Thomas is on hand to support her, and her troubles don't seem to have put him off.

I'm coming to get you...

As the attacks escalate, the police have no leads and it's making Laura paranoid. It's clear there's someone else out there who hasn't forgotten who she used to be.

Someone who knows what she did...

Someone who won't stop until she loses absolutely everything...
