In Bakersfield, California in 1991 two boys stumbled upon a grisly discovery; the murdered body of a young woman. In the Shadows is the new podcast from Wondery+ and Casefile Presents, which follows the ensuing thirty-two year ordeal to uncover those responsible for the crime and bring them to justice. The mystery riveted the desert-town for years. Police immediately zeroed-in on the victim's long-time boyfriend, a beloved star athlete. But popular opinion was divided. Despite national attention and several trials, a conviction remained elusive and many thought the case would never be solved. That is, until this podcast turned over a new leaf. During the investigation of In the Shadows, several individuals revealed shocking information previously unknown to authorities. Ultimately, this new insight turned everything on its head and will bring you one step closer to deciding who’s responsible for the murder. The first episode of In the Shadows is available wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen to the rest of the series ad-free only on Wondery+ (https://wondery.com/shows/in-the-shadows). Join Wondery+ in the Wondery App or on Apple Podcasts and take advantage of their 7 day free trial.

When the acclaimed Silent Waves podcast was released on our Casefile Presents network in 2019, I knew that the show’s co-creator and producer Georgina Savage must have another story she needed to tell. That’s when Georgina told me about The Invisible Hand, an ambitious and somewhat dangerous pitch for a podcast.

The podcast series would involve travel to South Africa and Mozambique, hiring a local fixer to ensure the safety of those involved - to tell a story that goes beyond the popular headlines - to document it from a never before heard angle.

And so The Invisible Hand came to fruition. Join Georgina Savage as she returns to her birth country of South Africa, where her cousin’s family live deep in the bush of the Kruger National Park - fighting on the front lines of a conservation war against rhino poaching.

Go behind the headlines with Georgina as she is given unique access and immerses herself in the lives of individuals connected to the illegal trade, including the men who poach rhinos, in an attempt to understand the personal circumstances of those entangled in a crisis.

Stay tuned to hear the show’s trailer. And while you’re listening, be sure to search for The Invisible Hand wherever you get your podcasts and hit the follow button. You can also listen on the website www.invisiblehandpodcast.com.
