Every year in the United States there are fifteen thousand murders, give or take a few hundred. Of those, nearly forty percent go unsolved.
In this six-part audio series, Christina Walsh is determined to change that. After struggling with the loss of her father, she sets out on a journey to bring the justice that has eluded her to the families of other victims. And she starts with a particularly strange case. The murder
of world-renowned violinist Leona McPherson, who mysteriously disappeared years ago after a concert at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. As Christina digs deeper, the story gets stranger. Leona was a prodigy, someone too good to be forgotten, but that's exactly
what has happened. She's been forgotten. Entirely. By everyone who knew her. From the gushing music critic in her hometown, to the detectives investigating her murder, even her own mother.
So Christina embarks on a cross-country mission, with her roommate Sophie, to figure out what happened to Leona. In the process she uncovers a trail of similar victims who have suffered the same fate. But if no one can remember the victims, how can the killer possibly
be caught? Christina's only leads come from a crazed homeless man's ramblings, a mysterious glass eye, and an otherworldly totem. Is Christina crazy or has she stumbled upon something so implausible it must be true?

Hugo Award-winning author Sanderson ("Mistborn" series) and coauthor Wells (Ghost Station) offer a compelling listen in the style of a true-crime podcast. Written exclusively for audio, this short mystery is engagingly performed by a full cast of talented narrators. College student Christina Walsh discovers a CD of world-renowned violinist Leona McPherson, who mysteriously disappeared and was found murdered years earlier. Christina, who recently lost her father, is drawn to the case and decides to travel with her best friend, Sophie, on a cross-country adventure to discover what happened to the musician. As the two investigate, the case gets stranger and stranger. Leona was a famous prodigy, but it now appears that no one--not even Leona's mother--remembers her. What exactly have Christina and Sophie stumbled upon, and could they be in danger too? The podcast format works well in audio, with multiple voices, sound effects, and the atmosphere of an actual podcast. VERDICT A fresh and fun listen perfect for fans of Courtney Summers's Sadie. Podcast lovers, true-crime devotees, and Sanderson's and Wells's many fans will be enthralled.--Erin Cataldi
