Another true crime podcast centred around a young woman’s death. Was it murder? The police thought not, but the podcast, through careful examination of the facts, dares to wonder. This might not sound an exciting prospect (perhaps it even sounds standard, though if it does, should we think about that?), but Fallen Women, from Tortoise, is more than the usual whodunnitreally? podcast. In it, the dedicated, brilliant investigative journalist Louise Tickle re-examines the death of Bianca Thomas, a young mother of three who died in August 2018.
