    Fun and funny. Nice and twisty. Watson is utterly charming. The wait for new episodes to drop is a punish!

  • Seasonally whacky intrigue

    This is full of promise. Echoes of Mark’s novels in its writing style. If I could master the Discord app, I’d have a go at that. Yep! I’m in. Can’t wait for further episodes. (Just listened to Chapter 4…). 😀

  • Perfect Narrative Podcast

    I’m brand new to Mark Watson’s fiction - hot damn can this dude write (and perform, and cast, and connect strangers, and invent formats apparently)! I’ve found myself actively looking forward to Sunday morning 💖

    It’s cozy. It’s charming. It’s fascinating. (And not at all grisly in the way some mystery pods can be).

  • The Adventures Of Hugh Flounder

    Really enjoying this murder mystery podcast. It has a great cast and a truly puzzling crime. The unreliable narrator aspect makes sifting through the clues even more challenging. The added element of the audience potentially influencing the investigation is unusual and intriguing. Recommended for amateur and professional sleuths alike!
