Up In Smoke

Adam Buxton and Mei Mac star in a true crime podcast about a fictional event. In 2014 a devastating house fire shatters the quiet life of Greenloch, a rural English village. Teenager Mason Miller is presumed dead in the blaze. When investigators sift through the ashes, no trace of his body is found. The mystery of Mason’s disappearance ignites a global media frenzy. It draws in police, reporters, and psychics from around the world - all obsessed with one question: Where is Mason Miller? Years later, after the wrongful conviction of Mason's music teacher, the local tabloid journalist who broke the story launches this podcast to unravel the mystery.
