All right, everyone, if you have been waiting for the perfect moment to pick up my latest novel, The Missing Half, this is it because it is officially out on paperback and there is more waiting for you inside.

There is nothing better than getting cozy and diving into a story that you can't put down.

And now you can take the missing half anywhere, crack the spine, roll the cover, and lose yourself in a mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end.

And in paperback, the ending extends beyond where the story has before.

And just when you think you have it all figured out, now there is a new chapter.

One more piece of the puzzle.

One more twist that you didn't see coming.

If you're ready for a story full of secrets, surprises, and a final turn that will stay with you, grab your paperback copy of The Missing Half now, wherever books are sold.

Hi, Crime Junkies.

I'm your host, Ashley Flowers.

Today's story about Spencer Irwin is one that I know you've never heard before because it's never been reported on before.

And that's probably because if you were to ask Fresno police, there's no story to tell.

Or at least they would have said that for a while.

Spencer was a 30-year-old man that they found naked, covered in dirt at the bottom of a loading dock back in 2024.

They initially assumed that he was homeless, assumed he died of a drug overdose, assumed that there was nothing they deemed worthy of investigating.

So they didn't.
