Marie Kuhnla set off on a much-anticipated journey from New York to Turks and Caicos for a fun-filled girls getaway. The friends were looking forward to a joyful week of bonding and relaxation, their days brimming with adventures like snorkeling, belting out tunes at karaoke, and basking in the sun by the pool.

However, the tranquility shattered one fateful evening when Marie retired to her room for a brief rest before dinner, never to be seen alive again.

Tragically, Marie's lifeless body was discovered on the premises of the Club Med resort, beating signs of assault and strangulation. Admidst the shock and grief, her friends pointed the finger at another guest staying at the resort. Yet, despite their suspicions, there has been no justice for Marie.

What happened on that fateful evening?

Listen as we dive into Club Med, Turks and Caicos, the case of Marie Kuhnla, and how to stay alive on vacation.
