    Steven Cook, a 20-year old, UK resident sets out on holiday in the tourist town of Malia in Crete, Greece. It's the first time he'd ever travelled without his family, but he was with a large group of good friends and a tour organizer. Yet despite all his pals and the festive island vibes -- on the first night of the trip -- Steven gets separated from the group and never makes it back home. Did he meet someone? Was he robbed? Trafficked? Or did some strange accident befall him? This is a case where everyone from local law enforcement, to Steven's friends and family do everything right in their search for Steven... yet somehow he is nowhere to be found. As days turn to weeks; and months turn to years -- the search becomes more desperate and mysterious. As witnesses come forward saying they've seen the young, Brit, hope springs eternal. But in the end... this one ends in a tragedy nobody could have seen coming. All we can say is... stay safe out there Slaycaters!

Crying with laughter

I absolutely love this podcast!! I wish there was more than one episode a week to listen to. I love the dark humour as it makes a change to most of the true crime podcasts out there and the three hosts Kim, Adam and Gerry are equally brilliant and funny in their unique way.

Looking forward to many more episodes, keep up the good work,

love Angela in the UK.
