Veteran BBC reporter William Carver is back. This time, he's in Cairo - bang in the middle of the Arab Spring. â  The only story in the world' according to his editor. But it isn't - there's another story, more significant and potentially more dangerous, and if no one else is willing to tell it... then Carver will, whatever the consequences. William Carver spots the Arab Spring early, aided by one of the infamous â  Listeners' at the BBC monitoring station in Caversham. He and his producer Patrick chase the story across North Africa before arriving in Egypt where the battle between the corrupt old order and the new will be both bloody and potentially definitive. Meanwhile, in Eritrea, two brothers begin to make their way up from the Horn of Africa and across the continent, desperate to find a better life in Europe. The horrors they endure at the hands of people traffickers and others along the way test their endurance and humanity to its limit
