Adam Shand said: “Real Crime brings together nearly five years of investigation and collaboration. It’s an anthology of work that continues to grow and evolve, with fresh cases, breaking leads on existing cases and a brand-new series, Australian Detectives. We are taking listeners into the world I’ve inhabited for two decades and finding new ways to tell these stories.”
