Wicked Words - Sarah Weinman: Quite a Scoundrel

We’ve met author Sarah Weinman before when she unraveled the real story of the novel Lolita. Now Weinman tells us about killer Edgar Smith, who manipulated powerful men and women to help him get out of prison...and then he killed again.

Written, researched, and hosted by Kate Winkler Dawson/producer Alexis Amorosi/mixer Ryo Baum/sound designer Andrew Eapen/composer Curtis Heath/web designer Ilsa Brink
