Welcome to Dead Air, where M is for midnight, Mackenzie...and murder.

Mackenzie Walker wasn't planning on using her college radio show to solve a decades-old murder, but when she receives an anonymous tip that the wrong man may have taken the fall, she can't resist digging deeper.

It doesn't take long for Mackenzie to discover gaps in the official story. Several potential witnesses conveniently disappeared soon after the murder. The victim, a glamorous heiress and founder of a Kentucky horse-racing dynasty, left behind plenty of enemies. And the cops don't seem particularly interested in discussing any of it.

But when the threats begin, Mackenzie knows she's onto something. Someone out there would prefer to keep old secrets buried and they seem willing to bury Mackenzie with them. Thankfully, she's getting help from a very unexpected source: the victim's son, Ryan. The closer she gets to him, however, the more important it is for Mackenzie to uncover the truth before he gets buried alongside her.

Read or listen to the ebook and audiobook of the serial novel Dead Air, and then check out Mackenzie's podcast for a uniquely immersive experience. Does the truth lie in the serial, the podcast...or somewhere in-between?

Goodreads review by Annika on July 20, 2018

I really enjoyed this mystery, which I read for a work project. Set in the world of Kentucky horse racing, but told from a semi-outsider point of view, it manages to bring the girl sleuth into the present day with its podcast framework. I wrecked the serial format for myself by reading an ARC from c......more
