About this listen

6th April, 1994: In the skies above Rwanda the president's plane is shot down in flames. The mass slaughter that follows is one of the bloodiest chapters in history. Twenty years on, BBC Newsnight producer David Belton, one of the first journalists into Rwanda, tells of the horrors he experienced. He revisits a country still marked with blood, in search of those who survived and the legacy of those who did not.

Critic reviews

"Belton excavates the truth... to produce a book that is both illuminating and profoundly moving" ( Independent)
"Brings the story right up to date, confronting the dilemmas and tensions that lie not far below the surface... Elegantly written" ( Observer)
