Crime Scenes

De: Vespucci

Narrado por: Emilia Fox

The truth is more twisted than fiction…

Crime Scenes takes you behind the police tape and immerses you in the stories of astonishing crimes from around the world. A town created by Disney, a luxury yacht in the Caribbean, an impenetrable Australian forest, the backstreets of Liverpool and a bungalow in Wales all provide settings for a series of sinister, and at times unbelievable, true crimes.

CONTENT WARNING

There are depictions of serious injury, sexual assault, rape and murder, some of which are graphic. There are also descriptions of suicide and mental health issues. Please take care when listening.

Where actors are used, their words are closely based on existing documents and research, but may be paraphrased at times and certain lines have been imagined based on our research.

If you are affected by any of the themes in this series, see below for a list of organisations that can offer support and information.

EPISODE 1 - Celebration, Florida.

In 2019, the perfect town has been created for those chasing the American dream but behind the white picket fences and manicured lawns, an unimaginable nightmare is unfolding for one family.

EPISODE 2 - Llanfairpwll, Anglesey.

The beautiful landscape of the Welsh island of Anglesey was tainted in 2001 by the brutal murder of 90-year-old Mabel Leyshon. But there’s something the police are holding back - what is so unsettling about this particular crime scene?

EPISODE 3 - Belanglo State Forest, New South Wales.

1990s Australia is a popular destination for young backpackers. Two, however, are found murdered in a dark, foreboding forest and the police uncover an even more chilling truth.

EPISODE 4 - Antigua and Barbuda, the Caribbean.

Off the coast of the picture-perfect, crime-free Caribbean island of Barbuda, a yacht bobs gently in the florescent blue sea. But below deck, the serenity evaporates as the four-person crew have all been brutally murdered. Are there serpents in paradise?

EPISODE 5 - Anfield, Liverpool.

In 1931, the quiet veneer of domesticity shatters when housewife Julia Wallace is found murdered in her home. But is all as it seems?

great job

the narrator is fantastic! I have never before heard these stories. Great way to spend an afternoon.

Like a story

I liked the character development, it really helped you get into the story. Fun read.

Riveting

Full marks to the narrator. What control and cadence! Would love to hear more by her.

being apart of the stories told

I love how it makes you feel like you are there being apart of the stories

The narrator!

Reading with such ease and makes you feel as if you’re there! Would most definitely love to hear another with her being the narrator!

Stories I hadn’t heard.

Not only had I not heard most of these stories but the production on them was amazing. The story telling was awesome and her voice was nice to listen to. I love having actors pop in to be people from the stories. It made them come to life even more. These are all sad events but you are kept captivated until the end.

Thrilling!

Thrilling storytelling! I enjoyed the use of distinct voices and audio for various characters, and the narrator does an excellent job bringing each setting to life.

Interesting true tales from around the globe.

I liked the variety of stories that warn us of monstorious people about us that we may learn and keep ourselves from being featured in future episodes.

good listen

good and captivating stories of crimes and,I highly recommend this book, check it out

intriguing murder mysteries

The cases are presented in a dramatic way, but hold the listener's or reader's attention. I have heard at least one story before, but these are all well known cases. Interesting and enjoyable read.
