About the episode

Go to https://kachava.com and use code HSP for 15% off your first order. A college student gets into what she thinks is her rideshare. A speech therapist spends years pretending to be someone's mother. And a backpacker in Singapore accepts a stranger's offer to split a hotel room…then never calls home. Three stories about the people who slipped through the cracks. By the time anyone realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
