When Truth Becomes a Murder Mystery

In the quiet Texas town of Plumpton, some secrets refuse to stay buried. Five years ago, Lucy Chase's best friend Savannah "Savvy" Harper was found murdered in an old barn. Lucy was discovered at dawn, trembling and disoriented, her clothes and hands covered in Savvy's blood - with absolutely no memory of the previous eight hours. Though never formally charged, the court of public opinion delivered its verdict: guilty. Unable to bear the weight of suspicion, Lucy fled to Los Angeles, methodically constructing a new life with a mundane investment job and an emotionally distant boyfriend. She even writes romance novels under a pseudonym - stories where justice prevails, unlike her own life. But when true crime podcaster Ben Owens launches "Listen for the Lie," a twelve-part series investigating Savvy's unsolved murder, Lucy's carefully constructed walls begin to crumble. "Listen for the Lie" becomes the narrative framework through which the mystery unfolds. Ben Owens, with his charming smile and probing questions, structures each episode to reveal new layers of the case. The evidence seems damning: Lucy was covered in Savvy's blood, had Savvy's skin under her fingernails, and left bruises on Savvy's arm. People witnessed them fighting at a wedding before Savvy ended up dead. As the podcast gains millions of downloads, Ben interviews various Plumpton residents, each offering different perspectives. What makes the podcast particularly compelling is how it examines the way true crime media shapes public perception. As Lucy notes, "The truth is whatever you say it is."
