His father left when Dele was nine. He showed up again thirty years later - in a will. Dele Adeyemi drives to the small Welsh coastal town of Aberderi to deal with his estranged father's estate. Three days, he thinks. Sort out the flat, speak to the solicitor, go home. What he finds instead: a flat full of books and vinyl records, a map with a field circled in red, an evidence folder labelled CARADOC - EVIDENCE in his father's handwriting, and a community radio station with forty-three listeners that his father built over eleven years and that is, it turns out, the only voice standing between a corrupt planning deal and the last green space in a dying town. Dele did not plan to stay. He did not plan to go on air. He did not plan to fall into the specific, inconvenient love with a place that makes you stop being a visitor and start being someone who has arrived. Radio Silence is a novel about fathers and sons, about the places that make us, about what community radio does when it does its job - and about a field that is not for anything, which is exactly what makes it worth fighting for. Funny, precise, and quietly devastating.
