Filthy Henry - The Fairy Detective
96 episodes - English - Latest episode: 4 months ago -Filthy Henry is Dublin's first and foremost fairy detective. Something of a niche job, since most people do not know that fairies are even real. Let alone need a detective. But when troublesome fairies look to make things awkward for mortals there is one man tasked with stopping the magical meddlers. The only problem is, Filthy Henry hates everybody indiscriminately and would much rather be left alone. Each season covers one book, written by Derek Power and narrated by Niall Milton. Each episode is one complete chapter from the book the season is covering. In between seasons we also release short, never before published, stories on a monthly basis. All music featured in the podcast is an original composition by Niall Milton.
