Episode 25: Part 2 'Mystery Deepens' - Lost Girls by Robert Kolker

Part 2: With the discovery of 4 bodies on Gilgo Beach, the existence of a serial killer is realized, and the fate of the missing women is known. The families respond very differently, most of all, that of Mari Gilbert, whose daughter, Shannan, is not found with the others, Maureen, Melissa, Megan and Amber.  The torturous waiting begins as law enforcement belatedly begins to investigate the murders, as families cope with grief and disappointment, anger, and misunderstandings.  Join Jill as she delves into this intimate tale of murder, sex, drugs, endurance, heartache, and families coping with the unthinkable.    Source material for the Lost Girls trilogy is on Jill's blog www.murdershelfbookclub.com, June 2021.
