Episode 1
Two teachers at an international school in Manila kidnap a child. It is a simple get-rich-quick plan that turns out not to be quite as straightforward as they had hoped.
Daniel Ryan and Jade Matthew (who won the 2015 Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Audio Drama Award for Best Debut Performance for her role in A KIDNAPPING) play two British teachers at an international school in Manila who attempt to kidnap the 10-year-old son of a prominent Filipino politician. It's a simple get-rich quick plan that turns out not to be quite as straightforward as they had hoped.
A fast-paced thriller and a grand, comic morality tale set and recorded in the Philippines.
