About this listen
The highly anticipated inside look at the collapse of the Murdaugh dynasty by the celebrated investigative journalist and creator of the #1 hit Murdaugh Murders Podcast, Mandy Matney.
Years before the name Alex Murdaugh was splashed across every major media outlet in America, local South Carolina journalist Mandy Matney had an instinct that something wasn’t right in the Lowcountry. The powerful Murdaugh dynasty had dominated rural South Carolina for generations. No one dared to cross them.
When Mandy and her reporting partner Liz Farrell looked closer at a fatal boat crash involving the storied family’s teenage son Paul, they began to uncover a web of mysteries surrounding the deaths of the Murdaughs’ long-time housekeeper and a young man found slain years earlier on a backcountry road. Just as their investigations were unfolding, the brutal double murder of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh rocketed Alex Murdaugh onto the international stage.
From the newsroom to the courtroom, to the kitchen-table studio where Mandy recorded her #1 Murdaugh Murders Podcast, Blood on Their Hands is a propulsive true crime saga, an empathetic work of investigative journalism, and an excoriation of the “good old boy” systems that enabled a network of criminals.

This is a compelling and personal behind-the-scenes look at the collapse of local journalism, as well as a notorious recent true crime saga.

Great story
An interesting story that was clearly retold but narrators voice was quite irritating after a while unfortunately.

A story of resilience
This isn't about the murders. This is about a woman who saw something wrong, saw people who were hurting and not being heard, and stepped up in her role as reporter. Thank you for your honesty, diligence, and strength.

Could not put down!
An excellently written, honest account from one of the best journalists and podcasters out there! Like the podcast I could not stop listening and I was delighted that it was Mandy herself who narrated. Her voice easy to listen to and, as a female, her stories I found to be exceptionally relatable. I can’t wait for book number two to be published!

"Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive."
Wrote Sir Walter Scott in 1808.
Alex Murdaugh, who gave this quote a second life, practiced deception for years. He stole, he killed, is serving 2 life sentences & will get more, no doubt.
We must thank Mandy Matney for what she has done, and continues to do to expose corruption, and help with a fairer world.
So many of us from across the world (I'm French) follow her podcasts, and now read or listen to her book.
It's remarkably well-written and well'read by the author.
Thank you, Mandy.
Keep up the good work!

Fascinating insight
I finished this in two days, it was so good. I'm a fan of the podcast and this was a fascinating insight into how the story broke, the reality of working in the media and the toll it took on the reporters. It's incredible what Mandy, Liz and the team achieved and this book tells the unvarnished story of how they did it.

A Brilliant Read
If, like me, you listened to every episode of the Murdaugh Murders Podcast and Cup Of Justice, then this book tells you all you wanted to know about Mandy's incredible journey behind the scenes. If you're new to this then it's still a great read, and if you love true crime then you really need to listen to the podcasts. Where you are in the world doesn't matter - I'm in the UK - because this is of international importance. The trial is also available to watch and it's mind blowing. There is no doubt that without Mandy and Liz, none of this would have happened. Two incredible, brave women who blew the world away.
