  • Summary

  • Harper McKenzie wakes to the worse possible day: her 18-year-old son has vanished from her Manhattan apartment without trace.

    Worse, no-one knows what she’s talking about. 

    No-one thinks she had a son. 

    Ever.

    Has she lost her grip on reality?

    Or has the world shifted in a terrifying and unpredictable way?

    The Effect is a taut psychological thriller that challenges everything we thought was real, as Harper’s quest to find her son pushes her to the very edge of reason.

Great audio drama!

A fantastic 10-episode mystery box for any fans of The Matrix, LOST, The OA, and Westworld. Each episode draws you deeper into the mystery with fantastic acting and an immersive soundscape. Here’s hoping there’s a second season.
