	Description:		When a girl disappears in the heart of England how far back do you have to go to find the truth? Paul Hilton continues Jon McGregor's gripping new series. A community is rocked when 13-year-old Becky Shaw goes missing on a holiday to the Peak District. Now her disappearance sparks long-buried memories, and opens old wounds. Today: the local butcher recalls a sinister meeting with a man about a dog the summer before... The fifteen stories of The Reservoir Tapes each stand alone but together build a compelling portrait of a village shaken by tragedy, as they explore events that precede and follow the disappearance of the teenage Becky Shaw. A companion to Jon McGregor's critically acclaimed Man Booker long-listed novel Reservoir 13, these stories and their different perspectives offer tantalizing glimpses as what to might have happened to the teenage girl. Writer: Jon McGregor is an acclaimed British novelist who has been longlisted for the Man Booker Prize three times. His third novel, Even the Dogs, won the International Dublin Literary Award. Reader: Paul Hilton recently starred in Lucy Kirkwood's Mosquitoes in the National Theatre. His film work includes the recently acclaimed Lady Macbeth, and Andrea Arnold's Wuthering Heights. Producer: Justine Willett.
