Welcome to Case Closed—the podcast for true crime fans, featuring more than just true crime stories. Whether it's a thriller, a mystery, or a crime—either true or imagined—Case Closed shares stories full of vibrant characters, engrossing details, daring twists, and sweeping suspense. Our next season is about to launch, and we can’t wait to share this one with you. This time, we’ll be serializing Alex Finlay’s The Night Shift, an electrifying thriller about a pair of small-town murders fifteen years apart—and the ties that bind them. You won’t want to miss this one. It’s New Year’s Eve 1999. Y2K is expected to end in chaos: planes falling from the sky, elevators plunging to earth, world markets collapsing. A digital apocalypse. None of that happens. But at a Blockbuster Video in New Jersey, four teenagers working late at the store are attacked. Only one inexplicably survives. Police quickly identify a suspect, the boyfriend of one of the victims, who flees and is never seen again. Fifteen years later, more teenage employees are attacked at an ice cream store in the same town, and again only one makes it out alive. In the aftermath of the latest crime, three lives intersect: the lone survivor of the Blockbuster massacre who’s forced to relive the horrors of her tragedy; the brother of the fugitive accused, who’s convinced the police have the wrong suspect; and FBI agent Sarah Keller who must delve into the secrets of both nights—stirring up memories of teen love and lies—to uncover the truth about murders on the night shift. Twisty, poignant, and redemptive, The Night Shift is a story about the legacy of trauma and how the broken can come out on the other side, and it solidifies Finlay as one of the new leading voices in the world of thrillers. We’ll release two new episodes every week beginning April 10th! Make sure to subscribe to Case Closed to get notified each week as episodes drop. We don't want you to miss anything. Be sure to listen or download by May 2...

Welcome to Case Closed—the podcast for true crime fans, featuring more than just true crime stories. Whether it's a thriller, a mystery, or a crime—either true or imagined—Case Closed shares stories full of vibrant characters, engrossing details, daring twists, and sweeping suspense. Our next season is about to launch, and we can’t wait to share this one with you. To kick off the year, we’ll be serializing Hayley Scrivenor’s Dirt Creek, a small-town mystery with ‘sharp-edged tempers, accidents waiting to happen, and dark inheritances’. You won’t want to miss this one. Who's lying about what happened at Dirt Creek? When twelve-year-old Esther disappears on the way home from school in a small town in rural Australia, the community is thrown into a maelstrom of suspicion and grief. As Detective Sergeant Sarah Michaels arrives in town during the hottest spring in decades and begins her investigation, Esther’s tenacious best friend, Ronnie, is determined to find Esther and bring her home. When schoolfriend Lewis tells Ronnie that he saw Esther with a strange man at the creek the afternoon she went missing, Ronnie feels she is one step closer to finding her. But why is Lewis refusing to speak to the police? And who else is lying about how much they know about what has happened to Esther? Punctuated by a Greek chorus, which gives voice to the remaining children of the small, dying town, this novel explores the ties that bind, what we try and leave behind us, and what we can never outrun, while never losing sight of the question of what happened to Esther, and what her loss does to a whole town. We’ll release two new episodes every week beginning January 21st! Make sure to subscribe to Case Closed to get notified each week as episodes drop. We don't want you to miss anything.

Welcome to a new season of Case Closed. This fall, we’ll be serializing the newest audiobook from Carola Lovering, author of Tell Me Lies. You won’t want to miss Bye, Baby, a “powerful, relatable, and crazily addictive” story. Every friendship has its shadow... On a brisk fall night in a New York apartment, 35-year-old Billie West hears terrified screams. It's her lifelong best friend Cassie Barnwell, one floor above, and she's just realized her infant daughter has gone missing. Billie is shaken as she looks down into her own arms to see the baby, remembering—with a jolt of fear—that she is responsible for the kidnapping that has instantly shattered Cassie’s world. Once fiercely bonded by their secrets, Cassie and Billie have drifted apart in adulthood, no longer the inseparable pair they used to be in their small Hudson Valley hometown. Cassie is married to a wealthy man, has recently become a mother, and is building a following as a lifestyle influencer. She is desperate to leave her past behind—including Billie, who is single and childless, and no longer fits into her world. But Billie knows the worst thing Cassie has ever done, and she will do whatever it takes to restore their friendship… Told in alternating perspectives in Lovering’s signature suspenseful style, Bye, Baby confronts the myriad ways friendships change and evolve over time, the lingering echoes of childhood trauma, and the impact of women’s choices on their lifelong relationships. We’ll release two new episodes every week beginning October 1st! Make sure to subscribe to Case Closed to get notified each week as episodes drop. We don't want you to miss anything. Be sure to listen or download by December 20th so you can hear the whole twisty story. Can't wait until next week? You can find Bye, Baby wherever audiobooks are sold.
