Customer Reviews
Amazing!
This is easily one of the best audio dramas ever! It’s everything I would want from a dark detective noir story. The characters are great and the pacing is thrilling and flawless. Each episode made me want to keep going, and the supernatural elements worked well too. Definitely recommend, this is worth a listen!
The accents
