Finding Pattersby is a weird fiction mystery about a disgraced ghostwriter who uses his investigation of a legendary, missing thriller author to work through some stuff. Also the ghostwriter’s a liar. Join host Ryan Cervantes as he delves into the underworld of the suspense-thriller book industry and uncover the Truth behind Luke Pattersby’s mysterious disappearance. Part travelogue, part horror story, all tongue-in-cheek mindbender, he’ll face a rogues gallery of eccentric authors, corporate monstrosities, dark academia and cultish readerships as Cervantes’ slice-of-life detective saga threatens to become the type of thriller novel he once wrote. In other words: The following events are fake. The story however...is real. New chapters release last Thursday of every month; bi-weekly updates in between. Finding Pattersby is written, directed and produced by Ryan Sandoval with music and sound design by Erik Jourgensen. This podcast contains mature themes, explicit language, comedic references to body horror, violence, kidnapping, drowning, cult participation and death.
