Description

Sarah Papenheim was young, talented, and full of life - a gifted blues drummer from Minnesota with dreams of making a difference. 

She traveled halfway across the world to study psychology in the Netherlands, never imagining that the person she shared an apartment with would become her worst nightmare.

It was a quiet December afternoon in 2018 when everything changed. There was a brutal attack, a desperate attempt to escape, and a crime so shocking that it left 2 countries searching for answers.

What really happened behind the closed doors of that Dutch apartment? 

Was there a warning sign no one saw? 

And who was the man Sarah trusted enough to live with - only for him to betray her in the worst way possible?

Listen as we dive into Rotterdam, the case of Sarah Papenheim, and how to stay alive on vacation.
