Taipei Noir
Taipei Noir is a 13-episode science-fiction noir audio drama set in 2080 in New Old Taipei, a city divided by a railway line into the wealthy Upside and the neglected Downside.

The investigation draws her into gangsters, corrupt police, and a sought-after vial of medicine known as the Cure. The series is written and produced by Shashwati Talukdar and Chris Lanning and narrated by Rick Monday.
