Beal City Catfish
Jack Hunter
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Anonymous texts. A town on edge. A teenager’s worst fear turned real.
When a wave of threatening messages hits Beal City High, friendships collapse and parents panic. The sender knows secrets only insiders should know—who was at which party, who’s been skipping class, who’s desperate to keep a past mistake buried. What starts as “pranks” spirals into stalking, coercion, and reputations destroyed.
Beal City Catfish is a front-row seat to a modern true-crime investigation inside a small Michigan town. Through interviews, records, and tight reporting, Jack Hunter follows detectives and digital-forensics specialists as they chase a phantom across phone logs, IP traces, spoofed accounts, and burner SIMs. Teachers, teammates, and ex-friends all become suspects. Every lead opens two more. And the truth—as unsettling as the messages themselves—forces the community to ask how far a catfish will go when attention is the prize.
Unflinching and tense, Beal City Catfish explores the real-world fallout of cyberbullying on teens, families, and teachers—and what it takes to untangle a lie that spreads at the speed of a group chat.
