| 0:05.7 | I interviewed my good friend, Laura Norton, who is a host of the Fallign podcast and the One Strange |
| 0:10.7 | Thing podcast to celebrate the launch of her book called Lay Them To Rest. I wanted to give |
| 0:15.6 | listeners of True Crime cases with Laney an opportunity to win an autograph signed copy. |
| 0:21.2 | Listen to the episode to learn more. Welcome back to True Crime Convos. I'm your host, Laney, |
| 0:26.4 | host of the independent podcast True Crime cases with Laney and it's haunted what now my paranormal |
| 0:32.3 | podcast where I share spooky tales submitted by you the listener. And today I'm joined by a very |

| 1:45.2 | And I was glad it came back on my feed. So please help me welcome Laura to the show. |
| 1:52.9 | This insert applause effects. So welcome. Thank you for joining me. Thank you for allowing me to read |
| 2:01.0 | the book before the general audience gets to. I thought it was really, really kind of |
