Publisher's summary

“If you love a Law & Order marathon and binged True Detective in one go, Exeter might be your new favorite podcast.” (The New York Times)

Season three of the hit crime podcast Exeter reunites an all-star cast, including Jeanne Tripplehorn (Big Love, Criminal Minds) and Ray McKinnon (Dopesick, Sons of Anarchy).

Detectives Coleen Clayton and Lester Pruitt are searching for a missing person when they turn up a dead body. Fitting into a pattern of gruesome homicides hitting South Carolina, the case bears an unnerving resemblance to one from 30 years ago—one that still haunts Exeter. The killer has become a legend, spawning countless ghost stories and Halloween costumes. A killer named Crouchback. But Crouchback died in prison 30 years ago, right?

With the public on edge, veteran detectives Colleen Clayton and Lester Pruitt embark on an investigation that will blur the lines between past and present, truth and myth. It will take uncovering some of Exeter’s darkest history to solve the case—before more people wind up dead.

In this all-new season, follow along with each twist and turn of a grisly tale sure to enthrall fans of Southern Gothic, film noir, and true crime.

Note: Listeners do not have to start with Exeter on season one. There is progression from season to season, but each season can stand on its own and does not have to be listened to in order.

Content warning: This show is for mature audiences only. It contains adult language and themes. Discretion is advised.

Good story, characters, narration and audio.

I enjoyed this. I wanted more of an ending, however, it's a podcast and maybe I have to stay tuned. Thanks for the fun distraction and keep up the great work.

Well acted and written

Exeter is one of the best audio plays you will hear. The acting is stellar and the script is great. You really feel like you know the characters. And the best news is that there are a couple of them available.

Captivated from start to finish

I love this series! My husband and I were on a road trip and we wanted some easy listening. Well, careful what you wish for! This series had us hooked and we went through all of the seasons on the road.

I desperately want this to be a Netflix series... it will be a hit!

TOTALLY UNEXPECTED

Truly enjoyed the storyline and the characters. Four stars on overall due to the music and closing credits in between every chapter. Looking forward to book 4.
