HAVANA SYNDROME

Description

From the award-winning creator of "Kalila Stormfire's Economical Magick Services" comes a new spy thriller audio drama and alternative reality game: HAVANA SYNDROME.

Moving around the world, the Menendez siblings only really had each other. Now out of college and out of the globetrotting lifestyle, Dimitri (the baby) is happy to settle into some form of stability near his parents in Florida. Guadalupe (the middle child) is happily married and living only a little bit abroad in Canada. But when the eldest of the three, Juniper, drops a stunning confession via voice note and disappears on an unauthorized trip to Cuba, the Menendez siblings have to decide if their unique bond is strong enough to withstand a world of secrets and power struggles.
