Another good one

I love listening to Ashley’s hard work. Sad circumstances for sure. Always looking forward to the next one! Keep up the great work!!!

Best one yet

Great writing, a concise overview of some terrible crime and innocent brave victims, and covers known and unknown(yet should be heard) cases. Ashley also is extremely rare as an author that is also a great narrator of their work.
