Set against the backdrop of Antarctica’s six-month Winter Over, which is marked by perpetual darkness and isolation, our story delves into the intertwined lives and claustrophobic relationships of a small group of international scientists and crew stationed on a remote research base, Bowers Wilson.

This is an interactive piece of fiction, which encourages the listener to unleash their inner detective. It also highlights the important scientific and environmental work that goes on in the remotest desert on earth…Antarctica. Scientists tirelessly continue their important research, even when Antarctica is locked in over Winter, the sea freezes over, and there is no one leaving or arriving for 4 months.

In addition to the extreme conditions, the research station crackles with sexual tension, unexplained mysterious psychotic events, hidden criminal pasts and strange global conspiracy theories, thrusting any wannabe detectives into a gripping narrative surrounding the mysterious death of 33-year-old behavioural scientist Andrew Fairfield. With only sixteen people left on the base, the murderer must be one of them.

The first of its kind, this interactive drama asks the listener to join the diligent and obsessive DCI Tessa McCallister, as she works around the clock to spearhead the police investigation from the UK and solve the murder from over 9,000 miles away.
