Possession

A chilling psychological thriller that keeps you guessing until the very end, Possession delves into the darkest corners of a woman's mind as she confronts the shocking truth about her husband's brutal murder. The past haunts her. The present hunts her. Conviction @ConvictionPod • 1m The investigating officer: "I've seen a lot of homicides in the years since, but … that's the one that keeps me up at night." The husband's best man: "They had everybody fooled. Or at least, she did. But I always knew something was off." Hannah, the wife: "I told you. I don't remember anything. I don't know." That's all to come, this season, on Conviction. Get ready for our most twisted season yet. ~~~ Ten years ago, Hannah's husband was brutally murdered in their home, and she (conveniently) doesn't remember a thing about that night. The police charged a stranger and put him away for life. Hannah packed up her six-year-old daughter and left London behind. But now her hard-won peace is threatened. Conviction, a viral true crime podcast known for getting cases reopened and verdicts overturned, has turned its attention to Hannah's husband's murder. They say police framed the guilty man, and that Hannah has more suspicious secrets than just her memory loss: a history of volatility; citations at the psychiatric clinic where she worked; dependencies on alcohol and pills; and a familicidal grandmother, locked away in a Gothic asylum until her death. As Hannah loses the trust of everyone she loves, the only person she feels she can confide in is a former colleague, Darcy, who's come back into her life—but who may have motives of her own. Yet Hannah can't even tell Darcy her deepest secret: that she's still tormented by the memory of her husband and the crater he carved through her life. “[A] twisty, atmospheric psychological thriller. … Readers will keep flipping the pages right up to the gasp-worthy final bombshell.
