About this listen

I know all about being afraid of the dark. Like my uncle, in my thirties I found my way into my own dark forest, face-to-face with the big bad wolf. He was so close to me the whole time, I could taste the blood on his breath. Meeting him felt like a fairytale. In fact, I met him at a bar called the Wolf's Lair. - Blackout, a podcast by Georgia Sansom

A sensational trial for an historic serial murder. A podcast that shines a light on how a city became afraid of the dark. A missing woman with a trail of secrets. A top lawyer famous for defending notorious criminals. A retired homicide cop hunting for the truth.

Intriguing and distinctive, this taut novella in three interweaving narratives will have you listening with the lights on.

Amazing Listen

Its a really well written story. However, the POV changes every chapter so if you don’t like frequent POV changes I don’t recommend this.
It’s about Georgia, the main character, investigating a series of cold cases in Perth, Australia. When she goes missing her uncle, a missing persons investigator, receives a call.. he immediately gets an uneasy feeling.

I haven’t finished but it keeps my attention while I clean.

Disappointed

Did not enjoy the story, the telling of the story was too predictable and failed to capture my attention
