Based on the same-titled podcast from Gimlet Media, The Horror of Dolores Roach tells the story of the titular character who's let out of prison after 16 years, and finds the world has changed dramatically.

Roach sets up a massage parlor in her friend's basement but the economic pressures cause her to take some dark actions to keep it afloat. The podcast was compared to The Legend of Sweeney Todd, though we won't spoil anything else.
