Jess Price was a young woman with a bright future ahead of her. She’d distinguished herself in her graduate creative writing program as an author with a strong voice and a lot of promise. So when she took a job to house sit through a luxury house sitting website, she assumed it would be a chance to get out of the city and focus on her writing.

In fact, she was hoping the quiet and isolation would be the perfect place to finish writing her first book.

But when Jess Price came to Sedge House, she would find herself embroiled in a mystery that would take over five years to fully extract herself from.

And her boyfriend at the time would end up dead.

A murder Jess Price was arrested and convicted to thirty years in prison for.

A murder she didn’t commit.

Today episode is based on the book, The Puzzle Master by Danielle Trussoni.
