If it weren't for the 57 bus, Sasha and Richard never would have met. Both were high school students from Oakland, California, one of the most diverse cities in the country, but they inhabited different worlds. Sasha, a white teen, lived in the middle-class foothills and attended a small private school. Richard, a black teen, lived in the crime-plagued flatlands and attended a large public one. Each day, their paths overlapped for a mere eight minutes. But, one afternoon, on the bus ride home from school, a single reckless act left Sasha severely burned.

Terrific Tale!
I REALLY liked this podcast! Not only is it a mesmerizing story, but the way it was put together kept my interest throughout. The only thing I didn't like (because I listen to multiple sections of the podcast at a time) was the minute or so intro between each, citing the producers, authors, etc. But I just hit the advance 30 second button twice and that took care of the issue. True crime, small Irish village, gossip, rumors, quirky folks, incompetent police, and more. Would love more of this type of offering.

Still curious...
...I am left wondering why anyone would find the ‘main suspect’ as suspect. To me it seemed others were not looked at or they were thrown out to soon. Who ever murdered her, it had to be someone who knew her because it was a passionate murder and those usually occur with people close to a victim. Seems to me that Mr Bailey is clearly a scapegoat...especially with all the errors made.

This is a Podcast. And it's fantastic!
There are so many reviews complaining about the format of this "audiobook" that I can only assume people have either listened to so many audio books they have forgotten how to actually read the descriptions, or most Audible listeners are ignorant of what a podcast actually is. Each episode of a podcast is supposed to state the title, the content, the host, directors/producers etc. Literally EVERY podcast ever does this.
Anyway, disregarding people's ignorant ranting, this story is fantastic. I love a good true crime whodunit podcast and West Cork is definitely that. The story is captivating and haunting and Sam and Jennifer do an excellent job of looking at all sides of this story. I highly recommend!

Podcast - Not an Audiobook
It's not bad, but it felt like I was listening to a "Dateline" episode. You would think that is great since I love to watch "Dateline", but I found that the visual story is as necessary as the audio. I finished at the middle of the listen and haven't wanted to go back.
To those that don't mind a Podcast, several reviews suggest it will be enjoyable. I can't get past my preference for listening to a well-developed book.

Overall rating 3.5 out of 5 stars
Would you consider the audio edition of West Cork to be better than the print version?
No and Yes.
Any additional comments?
I give the overall rating 3.5 stars just cause I enjoy listening to podcasts, which is what West Cork is- a podcast. I definitely enjoy the overall performance of West Cork even though, there are some parts that I don't- like how annoying the credits at the end of each chapter is. But I'm warning you, If you hate podcast, you'll hate West Cork. Because truthfully, there's nothing special about this one because how similar this is to a regular podcast. And the biased report that's provided, why am I not even surprised?
But oh well, everyone has their own preferences and West Cork is free for a limited time, so I definitely recommend you to give it a chance.

Intriguing and frustrating true story.
It took me a while to feel involved with the interview format of this story, but once I did so, I was totally taken with it. The frustration I mentioned in my headline stems from the lack of resolution in this fascinating, tragic case, not from the production itself, which is very well done. I didn't much care for the occasional background tonal music. But I got used to it and eventually stopped noticing the music entirely. I liked this Audible production very much.
