This hour the unexpected and inexplicable.

Julia
by Johnathan Goldstein with Chris Neary, Kalila Holt and Wendy Dorr ( Heavyweight , 2016)
In grade 8, Julia was bullied so badly by a group of girls that she changed schools without telling anyone. Soon after, the girls from her old school showed up at her house and rang her doorbell. She didn’t answer it. For the past 20 years, Julia’s been wondering what those girls wanted.

As Many Leaves
by Sally Herships (Falling Tree Productions for BBC Radio 4, 2016)
One evening in the autumn of 2013, Sally Herships received a short email from her husband telling her he was never coming home again. At first she thought it was a joke, but when she got home he and a suitcase had gone. From the night he left, her husband cuts off all contact and Sally, broken-hearted, is tortured by a single question. Why?
