In 2014, Dutch friends Lisanne Froon and Kris Kremers disappeared while hiking a jungle trail in Panama. Two months later, investigators found their remains, as well as a backpack with a digital camera filled with photos that hinted at a darker story. What happened to Kris and Lisanne? In this investigative series, journalists Mariana Atencio and Jeremy Kryt retrace the last steps of the doomed women. Their search for the truth immerses them in eight years’ worth of conflicting evidence, testimonies, and rumors, as on-the-ground witnesses in Panama come forward for the first time. This explosive new evidence sets off a real-time race to reopen the case, and finally get justice for Kris and Lisanne.

Customer Reviews
This podcast deserves your attention
This was an excellent piece of investigative journalism, richly researched, meticulously put together with deeply considered writing. I am stunned by the risks the journalists took to put this podcast together. I was genuinely terrified for the witnesses and journalists at times. People who argue there is no evidence
To this story in the reviews clearly have very limited experience in the places and contexts in which these reporters are working. I hope for justice for these girls and for the good people of Panama who deserve better from
Their justice system. Well done.
Just community gossip
No new evidence, just community gossip that the reporters have tried to hype up to justify their trip to Panama
Annoying Host
The host has an incredibly annoying voice. She speaks way too fast - I’m wondering if she’s just naturally excited or the editor has sped up her narration to 1.5X
Whatever, I had to switch off after 2 episodes. Also her feminist undertones through the first few episodes are unnecessary. Just preset the case
