Talk about leaving it on a cliff hanger!!!

The adverts may get a bit tedious, but this true story is as gripping as ever!

Completely and utterly compelling

Definitely one of the best true crime podcasts I've ever listened to. Hugely engaging subject matter, really well put together and I didn't want it to end. Excellent work on a very complex story. Thank you.
