152: Giving a voice to the voiceless - with Helen Matthews

Among all the noise in the media and politics about the impact of mass migration, it's perhaps easy to lose sight of the human aspects of the situation. Our guest this week, Helen Matthews, writes psychological suspense novels which deal with the darker side of human nature. Her first novel, recently republished as Girl Out of Sight, explores the issues and themes of modern slavery and exploitation. As Helen explains, she supports the work of anti-slavery charity Unseen UK by giving talks about the issue based around the book. Her novel, The Girl in the Van, was the 2022 Pageturner Book Award winner for the suspense and thriller genre. It's a fascinating and thought-provoking interview. Also this week, Adrian and Rebecca discuss the continuing march of AI generated narration for audiobooks, and note Queen Camilla's plans to enter the world of literary podcasting.
