Summary
A new thriller based on the true story of LA’s first known serial killer.
In 1919, Kathryn Wombacher finds a lonely-hearts ad placed by one Walter Andrew:
"Would be pleased to correspond with a refined young lady or widow. Object, matrimony.”
Kathryn and Walter fall in love and marry within weeks.
What Kathryn doesn’t know...is that her new husband is really James “Bluebeard” Watson, a notorious West Coast serial killer who catfished and married 22 women, murdering 10.
Based on newly unearthed evidence, Bluebeard is the definitive story of a sociopath who wielded love as a deadly weapon.
And it’s the story of a woman who discovered the unthinkable about her husband...and dared to fight back.

Gripping
This is a gripping account of murderer and bigamist James B Watson and how he was brought to justice. The production was superb as were all the voice actors. Well worth listening to, I couldn’t put it down.

Excellent drama, well acted and well written
Completely became engrossed in this true story because of the excellent acting, and production.
The writer is to be commended for allowing the victims story to be told in such a respectful and dignified way, and the same goes for the actors who did a brilliant job.
I hope Audible is able to commission more dramas as I now listen to dramas more than ordinary books

Interesting Concept
Although this is listed as an audio book, it is actually a play / performance. When I realised, I nearly stopped listening - so pleased that I carried on listening. I really enjoyed the performance, the cast members were easy to understand and follow, bringing the story to life.

Totally recommend
