The Heartstrings project was supposed to save the lives of its young participants: fifteen terminally ill children linked at the heart to healthier counterparts.

​

Twenty years later only two living pairs remain, along with the mysterious Freddie, who broke his string, survived - and vanished.

​

A study of grief and loss with a dark speculative twist.
