S4 Ep18: The Feathers, And The Golden Flute

The intriguing episode title leads to a quite bizarre case this week - and a definite first for The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, as once again I host a listener written episode that covers a unique, fascinating case from 2009, concerning one of the most bizarre heists ever.  With massive thanks to author Julia Crane.
