The background music 👏🏻

The voices and background music had me connected from the start! 10/10 recommend. I need yo find more like this!

Solid Quick Listen

Good characters and acting. I enjoyed all of the “tips” about lying. Fun moody piece. The flash back reveals were fun.

Riveting

I wish this story was longer! Well told and filled with angles. I really liked the characters and those that played them.

Clever

Quite well written
Layers morph in dialogue and action, hinting and ultimately fulfilling the conclusion

Dr. Bones is back!!! :)

Emily has to executive produce this as a tv movie. This was incredible!!!!! I had a feeling who had done it, but did not expect what happened. Emily has this knack of showing her emotions without overacting. You feel what she feels and as a reader/fan of hers this is what draws me to her projects. So well done!!! Highly rec!!!
