Acerca de esta escucha

In this scripted comedy/sci-fi Audible Original, a quick-witted young blogger turned investigator, Cassie (Sophie McShera) travels to the sleepy English countryside, only to discover a paranormal threat beyond humanity’s worst nightmares.

Following a strange event, frustrated British paranormal researcher, Cassie Chambers is thrown together with uptight American, Glen Hedley (Adam James), an agent for a shady government organization. This mis-matched duo soon discover, not only do they have a mystery to uncover, but also they’re humanity’s only defense against malign ultra-terrestrials from a different dimension. With interfering locals, obstructive bosses and a fanatical cult getting in the way, and only Cassie’s best friend Amanda (Mandeep Dhillon) as reliable help, Cassie & Glen must figure out why this unique enemy is here and turn it back before it’s too late - for all of us.

Also starring:

Mandeep Dhillon as Amanda

Amit Shah as Barry

About the Performer

Sophie McShera, who stars as Cassie, rose to fame as Daisy, the much-loved kitchen maid in long-running, multi-Emmy-winning ITV & Masterpiece series Downton Abbey, which went on to become a hit movie in 2019. Her natural talent for comedy shone as ugly sister, Drisella in Disney’s Cinderella, directed by Kenneth Branagh and in Armando Iannucci’s The Personal History of David Copperfield. Those movie roles have built on stand-out comedy turns in ITV2’s The Job Lot and Timewasters, the BBC’s Inside No 9 and Galavant for ABC. In the theatre, Sophie’s many roles include Jez Butterworth’s seminal play, Jerusalem; and not forgetting where it all began, as a teenager she starred as Annie in London’s West End.

This was an exceptional listen. The voice acting was spot on and the story was compelling enough that I started it tonight at work and ended up finishing it by the time I left. I really hope to hear more of their adventures in the future.

I really enjoyed this story. It was both funny and scary. It was not slapsticky but good comedy. And none of the characters were flat. All of the characters had a certain roundness to them and and unexpected edges they were more like 20 sided dice..I love these British podcasts and these scary tales.

Just a wonderful story

Great acting, great story

This was a fun romp with two groups of paranormal investigators who became involved in an alien invasion while a secret government agency tries to get things under control and save the universe. Fantastic cast. Very funny and heartwarming as well. Left open for further adventures which I hope they do. Cassie and Glen belong together. Loved this and hope Audible does more of them. Excellent production and great music too.
