short but not great

Kept trying to figure out who was talking. also the background noises, doors, sirens, paper, breathing very distracting. all that time to have the mystery solved in two pages?? narration hard to understand at times too!

Great Ensemble!

What a cast for this fictional ‘true’ crime story. I hug on every single word!

Hard to follow

The acting and production values were excellent. However, there were so many characters and time changes that it was difficult to follow. For that reason, the final reveal fell flat for me. I listen to many “who dunnit” types of mysteries, and very rarely have this problem.

Short but good

Full production short mystery with a twist. Enough of a story to make it interesting and the audio enhanced the story. Made it sound like a podcast.

Excellent writing

I loved the way the story was acted out. The author skillfully uses interviews to tell the story, allowing listeners to piece together the characters’ histories and their relationships with the killer and each other. I really enjoyed listening.
