This year, a new Australian true crime podcast will have you hooked. The Claremont Serial Killings.

The Claremont Serial Killings, hosted by The West Australian’s veteran crime and investigative reporter Gary Adshead, takes listeners into the shocking murders of three young women from the well-to-do Perth suburb of Claremont in 1996 and 1997.

The first girl, 18-year-old Sarah Spiers, disappeared after calling a taxi. Her body has never been found. A few months later Jane Rimmer, 23, disappeared, and her body is found in bushland weeks later.

As police begin searching for a serial killer, 27-year-old Ciara Glennon is taken and killed with her body found dumped in bushland three weeks after her disappearance.
