    When 16-year-old Rosa Maria Valentin didn’t return home from work in Hartford, Connecticut one July night in 1986, her family jumped into action to try and find her.

Great stories and storyteller

I really enjoy Kylie and the stories she tells. I love that some are unsolved and some have a resolution. It’s so nice to actually have some resolution with some of the cases she shares.
Kylie has a knack for storytelling and I’m loving this show as a whole.

great true crime podcast obsession

The cases are presented with respect and very little extrernal opinion interjection. You feel connected to the cases by the narration. Well worth the listen or binge

Being from the North East this podcast is great

I was able to binge this entire season so far non stop. I found this on audible too. I found episode 1 to be a great amount of time at around 30 mins . Each episode is at that amount of time. Perfect . Please keep up the great work.

Good stuff. Done with ethics.

My only complaint is how slow the host talks and all the long awkward pauses. If the podcast says 29min it’s only 20min of actual content.
