The Heron
The Heron is a six-part audio drama, a psychological thriller set at a cutthroat sports-driven boarding school. Kelsey, a teenage tennis star driven to the edge by her tyrannical trophy-mother, is forced to see her school’s psychiatrist, which reveals unimaginable events. Inspired by the likes of David Fincher and "Homecoming," The Heron is a character-driven mystery about a young woman who seeks the light at the end of the tunnel, but instead might find it's a train headed right for her.

“It’s a well cast and well written story. The mother is far from likeable and that is the point. I found myself listening during my free time and finished all six episodes in less than a week.”

“Kelsey’s story goes from physical and psychological torture to being groomed for sexual abuse. Do not listen if child abuse and child sexual exploitation disturb you.”

“It this story seemed rushed, with limited character development. (And I’m confused about the doc being from Massachusetts, but speaking with an English accent - what did I miss?)
It was entertaining, until the 6th episode and I bailed.”
