I'd planned to listen to the 1st episode on my hunt for another podcast to feed my addiction. It's now 9am and I've binged it all. Completely sucked into the story from the start, amazing voice acting, and sound design. Definitely a must listen.

I am thoroughly impressed by the characterization and fantastic editing and sound design with this podcast. I was freaked out, chilled to the bone, biting my nails nervous throughout many scenes in this thrilling and shocking climax. I loved this story so much that I'm listening to it again!

I'm now up to episode 7, the sense of tension has been maintained throughout. This is certainly a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ series so far. Why do I always listen to this during the early hours of the morning? It certainly adds to the atmosphere! 😱😱 I'm looking forward to the final episode next week.

I am now 5 episodes in and still enthralled. Both the storyline and the quality of this somewhat spooky drama reminds me of what radio dramas used to be like.

Gripping, intense, thought provoking and spiritual chaos. This is a fantastic podcast that brings you to a small town of Scotland and immerses you into the life of one very brave police sergeant on a very fateful Easter weekend. You must give this podcast a try!!
