Consider This from NPR - Tracking Down A Journalist’s Killers

When Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia was killed in 2017, she was in the midst of reporting on corruption within the island's government. After her death, a small team of reporters picked up her work where she left off, determined to find the people behind her assassination.

This episode also features reporting from NPR's Joanna Kakisiss.
