| “ | The Martian desert is a cold, lonely place. You can look around for miles in every direction and never see a human footprint – never see a single sign that anyone’s ever lived on this dusty rock. | ” |
—Juno Steel
Juno Steel and the Train from Nowhere (Part 1) is the fourteenth episode of the first season of The Penumbra Podcast. It was released September 20, 2016.
Overview[]
He arrived in the night: Peter Nureyev, the burglar who got away, the thief Juno Steel couldn’t catch.
Until he returned, things had been so simple: solving crimes, chasing a killer with her eye on Ancient Martian artifacts, and not letting personal business get in the way.
With Nureyev, though, things always seem to get personal very quickly. But Juno has no choice. Nureyev’s the only one with a lead on the killer Juno’s after. He knows exactly what she plans to take next, and according to him, it’s something very big and very dangerous.
According to Nureyev, anyway. But the question remains: can Juno trust Peter Nureyev?
