Sympathetically powerful podcasting at its best!
From the moment the music started and Isla began to speak, I was hooked! This isn’t just a monologue by ‘The Storyteller’ Isla Traquair, you hear first hand from the professionals in at the deep end of the investigation and, most heartbreaking and poignant of them all, the victim’s family, all of which take the podcasts to a whole new level. You’re a passenger in the car with Isla heading to the garden centre. You’re sitting on the bench in the castle grounds with Isla and Susan, the victim’s mum. You’re at the crime scene. You’re looking at the harrowing photos of the scene with the forensic expert. YOU ARE THERE EVERY STEP OF THE WAY! I’ve never listened to any podcasts before but now I understand the connection and immediate impact you feel by hearing a story unfold before your very ears...and I’m left wanting the next instalment there and then! I can’t recommend them highly enough and I’m expecting a lot more podcasts from Isla...or else!

Isla was a junior reporter for the local paper at the time & this was one of the first murder cases she worked on. She has maintained a close relationship with the family of Melanie &...Read full review »
