Hey, Dark Downeasters, I know that if you're here, you are ready to hear the untold stories of New England.

And if you've listened to Dark Down East for long, then you know how important it is to me to center these stories on the people at the heart of them.

Their families, their communities, their lives.

That's why I want to introduce you to another series I know you'll connect with as much as I

have. It's called Dark Valley. Like Dark Down East, Dark Valley takes place right in my home of New

England. And for this series, the focus is on the borderland of Vermont and New Hampshire,

where host Jennifer Amel takes you deep into a case that deserves

to be heard. It's thoughtful, human-centered storytelling that never loses sight of the people

episode with you right here. But don't worry, the entire series is out for you to listen to now.

So if you're ready for your next immersive true crime experience, listen to Dark Valley.

Hi, I'm Jennifer Amel, host of Dark Valley. Thank you for joining me on this journey as we dig deeper

into this case and into the stories of those most impacted.
