    From the creative minds behind Are You Afraid of the Dark (Audible’s Best Listens of 2023), writer Mac Rogers crafts the intriguing, revealing, and captivating tale of the Audible Original, Witness.

    Two vastly different worlds collide when an Amish boy, Samuel Lapp, becomes the sole witness to the murder of an undercover cop while visiting Philadelphia with his mother Rachel. Assigned to the case, narcotics detective John Book vows to protect Samuel and uncover the killer.

    But when the investigation takes a gut-wrenching turn, the lives of Rachel, Samuel, and Book are bound together in a fight for survival. The trio flees to a place forsaken by modern society to escape the killer’s crosshairs. But hiding cannot protect Book and Rachel from a forbidden longing that threatens to destroy the delicate balance between their worlds. With their hunters closing in, how far will Book and Rachel go to protect what they love?

An addicting listen!

This audio drama gave me a renewed appreciation for the 1984 Peter Weir film starring Harrison Ford. While that version has minimal dialogue and lush cinematography, the podcast does a tasteful job of expanding the interior lives of its characters. It’s a perfect companion piece.

Paramount, please make more of these projects. I loved every second of this.

Gripping and Brilliantly Acted!

This podcast was exceptional. All of the voices are perfect and the acting is superb. It’s extremely well done. If you have seen the movie with Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis, then you kind of know what happens already, but there are some additional things on here that were not in the movie. I highly recommend it.

Excellent updating of the movie Witness

Impressive full cast remake of Witness in an audio format. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I used headphones to enjoy the surround sound design.
