  • Summary

  • Twelve-year-old McKay Everett disappeared from his Texas home in September 1995. His father Carl returned from an Amway meeting to find the back door ajar and the telephone ringing. On the line, a woman with a raspy voice demanded $500,000. Over the next week, the FBI played a game of cat-and-mouse with the kidnappers, who used inside information to stay one step ahead of the investigation. Ultimately the FBI uncovered a series of crimes that started long before McKay was taken. Most shocking of all was the suspect. McKay had been betrayed by someone he trusted – a pillar of the community hiding a dark secret. But decades later, McKay’s mother, Paulette, still isn’t satisfied with the official story. She doesn’t think everyone involved has been brought to justice. Ransom: Season 1 - Position of Trust is a story of greed and betrayal and how one’s outward appearance can be dangerously deceiving.

MAKES YOU RESTART EPISODES REPEATEDLY

I want to listen to this. I can tell the content is good. Unfortunately, I cannot listen to it because of what I'm assuming are the settings used by the uploader.

THIS TITLE MAKES YOU RESTART THE EPISODE EVERY TIME YOU ARE INTERRUPTED. If you get a call, notification, or pause it to finish later, when you return it automatically starts the episode over and DOES NOT allow you to skip ahead to where you were.

Extremely annoying and makes it impossible to listen. PLEASE FIX THIS. I've been an audible user for years and I've never had a title that does this.
