Bitter Pill

Following a traumatic car crash, Mary joins a clinical drug trial in Belfast that promises a cure for PTSD. The medication triggers intense flashbacks of the accident that left her fiancée comatose. But is Mary simply remembering the event, or reliving it? And if she is actually returning to the past, does that mean she can change her future? Bitter Pill is a propulsive genre defying series that blurs the boundaries of science fiction and psychological thriller. A five episode audio drama series for BBC Radio 4 and Sounds’ blockbuster Limelight podcast strand, it challenges preconceptions about memory and trauma.
