À propos de ce contenu audio
In London, a newly-arrived Kurdish immigrant is brutally murdered by Turkish people-traffickers. The dead man’s wife, Irena, flees to East Anglia where she disappears into the murky world of illegal foreign workers. Reporter Joe Verdi goes undercover as a migrant worker to try to find Irena. But he’s not the only one looking for her – the Turks are also on her trail. Meanwhile, Joe’s colleague, Elli Mason, is following up the story of a typhoid outbreak. Three people have contracted the disease and the only link between them seems to be a supermarket chain. As the two reporters’ investigations come together, they discover there is a price to pay for cheap food – and sometimes that price is people’s lives.

It starts well with a story of a murder, a young immigrant woman hiding from shady traffickers and a local journalist snooping around and deciding to find that woman before it’s too late. Suddenly the plot switches to an unrelated story of a typhoid in a poultry factory, and the journalist spending his time on a random plantation picking courgettes. The immigrant woman disappears only to make a short comeback at the very end. The end that’s completely flat and dull. All characters are superficial, boring and loosely inserted into the story without having any particular meaning. Not sure who the target audience is over here, surely not me.
