As Good as Dead Playlist
This playlist follows Pip’s shift from the familiar rhythms of a small English town into the unease of being watched, threatened, and pulled back into investigation. Tense electronic textures, shadowy alternative rock, and sharper bursts of energy evoke her podcast-fueled public profile, the pressure of unresolved crimes, and her bond with Ravi.
