When Tim and Lucy discover an old radio hidden away in their school, they stumble upon something they were never meant to hear.
A strange transmission drifts through the static. A voice. A numbers station. A mystery that seems to reach back through time itself.
As the children investigate, they encounter a mysterious Man from the BBC, unsettling clues from the past, and whispers of an enigmatic figure known only as The Actor.
Part sci-fi story, part mystery adventure, and steeped in the atmosphere of classic British children's fiction, The Orphan Frequency is a haunting tale of curiosity, friendship, and the strange signals that refuse to stay buried.
Who is the Man from the BBC?
What is The Actor?
And why does the radio seem to be calling to them?
