Score: 4.9

"(Season: Gone Hunting) ...a classic true crime series complete with secrets, sex and money and a whole lot of suspense.

It takes some time for Gone Hunting to capture the listener’s imagination, so it’s not a podcast to play in the background while cleaning or completing life admin; it’s more a good listen for a long car drive."
Score: 4.6
