They say Dor’s family is cursed. The house her great-great grandfather built on the Southside of St. John’s has never been at peace; the old people think it lies on a fairy path. Ever since electricity came to the island, things have gotten worse, and experiments in the brand-new technology of radio put her family in real peril.
In December 1901, Marconi arrives in Newfoundland with a secret mission: to receive the first wireless trans-Atlantic radio signal. Disguised as a boy, Dor joins his team. Then The Little Strangers kidnap her mother. Must Dor sabotage Marconi's experiments to save her?
This audiobook was narrated by Kate Story and produced by Chris Brookes, of Battery Radio, with support from Rebecca Nolan.

Kate Story is a genderqueer writer and theatre artist from St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador. Uncanny occurrences were not unheard-of when Kate was growing up in the house on the Southside Road built by Kate’s great-great grandfather. Having fled to the mainland at sixteen, Kate keeps coming home to see family, present the occasional performance work, and get the occasional fit of the shudders. Kate lives in Peterborough/Nogojiwanong, Ontario, where the shudders are fuel for the writing and performance work. Her books include Blasted, Wrecked Upon This Shore, This Insubstantial Pageant, YA fantasy duo Antilia, and a collection of short fiction Ferry Back the Gifts. Her Running the Goat YA novel, Urchin was shortlisted for a Governor General's Literary Award
