Compelling Story

A moving and compelling story that takes place over decades. Expertly researched, written and produce. Chris Lambert deserves every accolade for his indefatigable pursuit of justice for Kristin Smart and her family. Very sad but ultimately uplifting.

The most thorough + emotional podcast

I really appreciated how the podcast focussed on the investigation without glamourising the crime. I cried, so many times listening to this and such a brilliant feat to have contributed to putting this monster away.

Simply the best I’ve ever listened to

Discovering today’s update to this podcast series just drove the following home:

(1) I have the utmost respect for Chris Lambert for his dedication, compassion, and professionalism.

(2) This is the most meaningful podcast series I have ever listened to.

(3) The Smart family’s dignity in all of this is an incredible example to others who are going through or have gone through such a gut wrenching experience.

I pray God’s richest blessings in you, Chris, for your future in making a significant difference through your work in others’ lives in the midst of this broken world.

I pray for you, the Smart family, that you will live to see the day when you can lay Kristen’s remains to rest and celebrate her life without yearning for that last missing piece if the puzzle.

Much love
