Chaplin can't understand why some students at his north London school are experiencing an
extreme ticking noise in their ears. Perhaps it's just a severe form of tinnitus? But only days
later it spreads to more students - and starts leaving bodies in its wake. Eminent
vaccinologist Lilly Slater has never seen anything like this before. She must race against the
clock to work out what is happening - and to find a cure. But their investigation throws up
more questions than answers until they realise the mystery behind the illness is even bigger
than they could have imagined... Will the truth behind this catastrophe become clear before
it's too late? _______________________________ Readers are loving Tick Tock'Well BBC Radio
