If you’re a true crime fan, be prepared to be enchanted by the story of the “Lady of the Dunes”. And in this absorbing docu-series, which you can watch on Peacock.
A woman’s body had been dumped on a lonely shoreline in Provincetown, Massachusetts in 1974. Her name was a mystery for almost 50 years, confounding investigators and threatening the town. That cold case was considered impossible, but now it has been solved by forensic science, especially DNA genealogy.
The docu-series takes the viewer back in time to follow police detectives and the tireless labor of genealogists. As pieces of the puzzle start to fit together, the tragedy begins. There is a very emotional sub story here that brings the “who is she” together. A son that has been searching for his mom for decades.
If you love true crime this is a must watch. The “Lady of the Dunes” is a poignant, philosophical account of a real-life mystery that has been all over the nation.
