Case 279: Zebb Quinn

The city of Perth in Western Australia is sometimes described as the most isolated city in the world.

But that sense of safety would be abruptly shattered by a man who would come to be known as The Night Caller. --- Narration – Anonymous Host Research & writing – Erin Munro Creative direction – Milly Raso Production and music – Mike Migas Music – Andrew D.B.
