Episode Seventy Seven, Sonia Blount Jul 24, 2023

Show notes

Although Shane didn’t have his phone with him to see that text, CCTV tracked a man picking up the key card left at the desk, and heading up in the elevator towards the 3rd floor. The man entered the elevator looking relatively normal… but by the time he got to Sonia’s floor, he’s put on a cap to disguise himself.

Episode Seventy Five, Natalie Hastings Jul 10, 2023

Show notes

With many thanks to our guest writer for their help with this episode!

She heard what sounded like a metal on concrete thud coming from the direction of the vehicle and looked up to see that it had mounted the pavement, the pavement she was standing on, that it had increased its speed and that it was coming straight towards her. She stood straight, not sure what was happening at first, before realising it was coming at her, it was coming for her. She started to run.

Episode Seventy Two, Barbara Lanthier Jun 26, 2023

Show notes

A shorter episode this week, so you've got another one coming on Wednesday!

Officers arrived just after 9pm and Gary pointed them to the car, overturned and lying in the body of water. He said that his wife was still inside- he’d tried to pull her out and to safety but she was unconscious and he couldn’t pull her through the open window. He told them he’d thought there was no point in both of them dying, so he’d decided on saving himself and had been waiting by the side of the river ever since.

Episode Seventy One, Caroline Crouch Jun 19, 2023

Show notes

Just after 6am that morning, Lila got a call from Babis’ phone, but on the other end she couldn’t make out what he was saying, it was a garbled panic. Lila woke her husband up and the two headed outside to go round to Babis and Caroline’s house, but before they got there, they heard the sound of sirens, and saw police cars racing round the corner and stopping outside of the house. What officers came across, was chilling...
