About this listen
During the night of July 16,1918, Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra, and their five children - Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Alexei - along with four loyal servants were brutally murdered by Bolsheviks.
For many years, there were rumors that the tsar’s youngest daughter, the Grand Duchess Anastasia, had survived that dreadful night and vanished. Anastasia did indeed disappear...but it was not the grand duchess.
What has the murder of an old lady in Devon to do with the killing of the tsar? Shackleton Blister and Amanda Lang join forces and search for the answer to a 100-year-old mystery.
Be warned. This fast-paced crime thriller will have you listening on until dawn.

A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), The Stranger Times is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable. At least that's their pitch. The reality is rather less auspicious. Their editor is a drunken, foul-tempered and foul-mouthed husk of a man who thinks little of the publication he edits. His staff are a ragtag group of misfits. And as for the assistant editor...well, that job is a revolving door - and it has just revolved to reveal Hannah Willis, who's got problems of her own.

Northern Ireland, spring 1981. Hunger strikes, riots, power cuts, a homophobic serial killer with a penchant for opera, and a young woman’s suicide that may yet turn out to be murder: on the surface, the events are unconnected, but then things—and people—aren’t always what they seem. Detective Sergeant Duffy is the man tasked with trying to get to the bottom of it all. It’s no easy job—especially when it turns out that one of the victims was involved in the IRA but was last seen discussing business with someone from the loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force.
