Introducing… Answers for Claudia, a new true crime podcast from the producers of Carrie Jade Does Not Exist. Listen to the first six episodes of Answers for Claudia for free, wherever you get your podcasts.

15 years ago chef Claudia Lawrence went missing. Multiple men have been arrested - then released. Several lakes near her home were emptied in the search for her body. Claudia has never been found. Now her mother has asked for help. 

Tom McDermott is the journalist who 80 year old Joan Lawrence asked to help her, saying this might be her last chance for answers. Tom has spent the past year immersed in Claudia’s friendship group, speaking to people in Malton and Heworth where Claudia and her family lived, but something isn’t right - even now people are frightened. Why?

Now Tom looks for answers - speaking to the people who knew Claudia best, exploring the persistent rumours surrounding the case and asking why, 15 years after Claudia’s disappearance, are the people of Malton still so scared of the truth?

Binge all episodes of Answers for Claudia in the Wondery App, Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
