This was a really fun listen. The readers were both good, and it was cool that the podcast segments really felt like listening to a recording of people talking, with laughing and such. The mystery kept me guessing all the way through. Around 50% in i thought i had it all figured out but I was quite wrong lol. It got a little old that literally every person in Plumpton was sleeping with each other, but it was more of a giggle than an actual gripe with the story.
Lucy was a really intriguing protagonist, and even though she couldn't remember what happened that night I found her constant urges to kill people really interesting; sometimes fun, sometimes disturbing. Overall a good story :)
