LISTEN HERE:
"Duncan is obsessed with a girl he doesn't even know. Maya. He only saw her for a minute. He's never even talked to her. But he hears her screaming in his dreams all the time. Last summer, he was swimming in the lake when Maya got pulled under and drowned. He couldn't get to her on time. Even though swimming was the only thing he was really good at, he couldn't save her. Duncan was always taught that guys should be heroes, but he failed to save her. So he feels like he fits in at his new summer job at the dungeon, also known as the lost and found for the Toronto subway. Looking through the lost items, Duncan finds a diary. It has the strangest leather cover that feels almost like skin. Someone left it on the train, and it is filled with the most twisted and disgusting stories. Animal mutilations, torture, abuse...and plans to capture and kill three women. Duncan has found the diary of a serial killer. What should he do with it? Duncan knows that he found this diary for a reason. He won't go to the police. If he can save these women from this killer himself, he can finally make up for not saving that girl in the lake. But is it safe for a high school student to be stalking a sadistic serial killer? How far will he go to make up for the past? And will he survive to find out?"
