About this listen

In 1948, a man was found dead on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, Australia. He had no ID, no visible injuries, and no cause of death. Inside his pocket was a scrap of paper with the words “Tamám Shud”—Persian for “It is ended.” What followed was a decades-long mystery involving an uncrackable code, a rare book, a mysterious woman, and theories ranging from Cold War espionage to heartbreaking love. In this episode of Mysterious 51, we uncover the full story of the Somerton Man—and explore whether the recent DNA breakthrough has finally solved the case… or only deepened the mystery.
