Brilliant story and narration.

I particularly enjoyed this podcast as it is set in a local town. As the storyline developed, bouncing back and forth over the decades, I tried my hardest to second-guess who the murderous monster was, but to no avail. The characteristics of the profiler were cleverly written.
I would recommend listening.

4/5

Good short story

Listened on a train journey very well acted and presented so much so I couldn't wait to get home and finish the story. I did find the long silence between chapters a bit strange thought it had finished the first time it happened

Loved the way that this was like an interview of those involved

Obviously the well known voices of the actors and the way they were telling the story as if being interviewed was excellent. I loved listening and listened in one full session.

Sheridan Smith

Loved it! Great story and characters and so well acted highly recommend it. Only objection I have to leaving a review is that it has to be 15 words! Less is more

Phenomenal acting

The most authentic acting I’ve heard in a long time. I felt like the story could have moved a bit faster but the acting was what made this enjoyable for me. Flawed characters who you don’t really know whether to believe but who deliver their lines with incredible authenticity

Excellent narration

Love the actors as seen on tv but they did a superb job with this book. Would make a great stage production. The background sounds and authentic interview style was very well done. Highly recommend.
