Description

The Labyrinth is a podcast documentary series narrating the case of a mysterious disappearance from a National Forest in Arizona.

It turns out other similar disappearances occurred nearby around the same time, prompting questions as to whether there may have been a connection between them. The Labyrinth also explores the general topic of people going missing from National Parks. In this podcast, you will hear candid interviews with members of law enforcement agencies, the families of the missing, as well as insights from renowned crime analyst Laura Richards.
