This is a great podcast, the only downside is that there weren’t many episodes! Worth the listen though.

Wish there were more

I listen to a lot of true crime podcasts and I had heard of most of these cases before. The cases are dealt with sensitively and I found them interesting. Each episode is quite short which I liked. If there was another series I would definitely listen. Highly recommended if you’re interested in true crime.

Interesting & sensitively done
