About this listen

Matthew Hanson is a forensic phonetician and the best audio profiler in America. He is able to create a psychological and visual profile of people using only tones, noises, dialects and voice colours. Thanks to him, some of the most dangerous criminals are in jail. Blackmailers, hostage-takers, assassins, the critical evidence that brought them to justice - short audio recordings. Hanson is fascinating, charismatic, difficult to see through. And: he is in solitary confinement.

A year ago he brutally murdered a homeless woman. The burden of proof was overwhelming. Hanson himself confessed to the crime and led the police to the corpse. And yet there are questions. Why would one of the brightest police advisers commit such a poorly planned murder? Why does Hanson refuse any defence? And why does he refuse all interviews - even one with the young true crime blogger Julia Abbot, who comes across inconsistencies during her research that could prove his innocence?

Driven by a traumatic incident in her past, Julia is not deterred by Hanson's insistence on his guilt. She decides to conduct her own investigation, which leads her to answers and dangers she never expected.

A good thriller and audio production.
Episode 1 is just so so, but after episode 2 it has a great hook and turns out to be excellent! It ends perfectly set up for another set of episodes. I hope they are written and produced soon. Enjoy

Hidden Gem of a thriller.

I binge listened to this over 2 days. Excellent performance. I hope there's a sequel!

Gripping

I am enjoying this so far and it's keeping me gripped, but I have to say this is despite some pretty bad voice acting in particular from several of the male roles, in particular Hanson and the step brother, something about the delivery by these two actors stands out from the rest as a bit hammy and unrealistic. I wonder if this is due them trying to pull off unfamiliar accents and act at the same time?

Enjoyable thriller, some bad voice actors

This multicast production takes a while to get going and I very nearly gave up early on as I found the main narrator difficult to listen to. However, if you stick it out, an intense thriller with lots of twists emerges. The narrator still bugged me and aspects of the plot were confusing. But as a free Audible original for members, this was an exciting listen mixed with some great acting and dramatic sound production. I hope Auris 2 (English version) is released soon!

Almost gave up but glad I didn’t
