Wondery Presents: Stolen Hearts
Sergeant Jill Evans is a small-town cop in Wales with an impressive record in her job, and a less than impressive record in her love life.

He’s a wealthy beauty entrepreneur with his own range of toiletries.
Girl meets boy. Boy meets girl. They kiss and fall in love. Roll credits.
But that would be boring, wouldn’t it? Instead, this is a love story like no other. It’s all going so well for Jill and Dean, until Halloween night, when Dean disappears. And Sgt. Jill is left to pick up the pieces.
