John Lewin and Detective Jimmy Wallace - tackle a 35-year-old cold case that hits Keith close to home. The victim is an ambitious Canadian nurse who moved to L.A. for love and adventure - only to meet a brutal end instead. But with no evidence and a suspect still at large, solving this ice cold murder case would come down to the wire.

    Two different women. Two split-second decisions. Two darkly different outcomes. One compulsive killer. Thirty years of "Dateline" and there are still some murder mysteries our man Keith Morrison will never forget - this is one of them.

Love love love this. The voice modulation, the pace, the pausing, the background sounds… well choreographed to put you to sleep in the best way. If I don’t listen to it every night I struggle getting to sleep. If I wake through the night I put it on and back to sleep I go.
