Story
It's wedding season on Nantucket. The beautiful island is overrun with summer people - an annual source of aggravation for year-round residents. When one lavish wedding ends in disaster before it can even begin - with the bride-to-be discovered dead in Nantucket Harbor just hours before the ceremony - everyone in the wedding party is suddenly a suspect. As Chief of Police Ed Kapenash digs into the best man, the maid of honor, the groom's famous mystery novelist mother, and even a member of his own family, the chief discovers that every wedding is a minefield - and no couple is perfect.

Story
Thirty years ago, Wilde was found as a boy living feral in the woods, with no memory of his past. Now an adult, he still doesn't know where he comes from, and another child has gone missing. No one seems to take Naomi Pine's disappearance seriously, not even her father - with one exception. Hester Crimstein, a television criminal attorney, knows through her grandson that Naomi was relentlessly bullied at school. Hester asks Wilde - with whom she shares a tragic connection - to use his unique skills to help find Naomi.

The cell phone service may be spotty and the waves may be rough, but every detail has been expertly planned and will be expertly executed.

As usual, KC delivers
Murder mystery , mixed with suspense and unexpected twists. I find it hard to compare with anything, because as usual, KC delivers dialogue and storyline that I could easily put in it's own category. As a repeat listener , I would recommend Motel Evil as well as any Wayland Production to anyone and everyone who loves an amazing story and an even better story telling experience.

KC Wayland is the master of cliffhangers. You just can't stop at one single chapter!

KC DOES IT AGAIN!!
My god once again KC Wayland does audio drama like no other! From the sound, to the actors and even to the subtle details LC literally never misses when it comes to stories. If you are fan of his hit series We’re Alive and the work he did on Bronzeville then you 100 percent are going to love this mini show! This maybe a mini show but there is nothing small about the production and quality of this work!

Unlike some of the Original podcasts, the episodes were a good length allowing you to really get into the story. The performances and the atmosphere created was really enjoyable. The only downside was the end which was a bit 'meh' but getting there was good fun and I'd give it another listen at some point.

A really well set up, but slightly flawed, mystery
There was the potential for a lot of atmosphere and energy to this series but it feels as if it wasn't quite realised some strange and sound mixing decisions. The set up is great buta you really need the characters to feel locked in, desparate and paranoid but it doesn't quite pull you in because the sound and music is so withdrawn, almost hidden under the dialogue.
This a great whodunnit otherwise, though there are too many flashback sequences in the early episodes which gets a little confusing unless your paying attention...
