completely enthralling

it's just like the crime shows on tv except as an audio version but it's just as compelling and well written. I feel kind im learning something, even if it's morbidly fascinating, and none of it is boring. I wish there were more honestly.

Disturbing

Many of these stories were disturbing and sad. IF is difficulty to think that even children have to live through things like this.

Shocking 😕

This first episode of The Philpotts was shocking and very sad. I like “true crime” stories and enjoyed(?) this first listen. I gave the performance 3 stars only because the recorded conversations between the parents was difficult to hear, probably a technical issue that cannot be helped. Plan to continue on with this series.
