#CRIMETIME

A large cast narrates this audio-original mystery, which merges laugh-out-loud humor and suspense. Nadiya, an author, enjoys her privacy and solitude. Her anonymity ends when she and her half-brother, Chase, witness a crime by a dirty cop. Chase posts the robbery on TikTok, where it quickly goes viral--making them a target for retribution. Their only recourse is to contact Nadiya's estranged father, a Ukrainian mob boss. The talented cast of narrators aptly convey the witty banter between characters and the emotional rollercoaster they are on. In addition to highly skilled narrators, the production is enhanced by sound effects. An authors' note explains the surprising origins of the story.
