Summary

In the beautiful coastal town of Adelaide in southern Australia, a secret lies. A man's body was found lying on the beach in 1948. No wounds were found. An unsmoked cigarette rested on his lapel. Ankles crossed. Dead. Police initially suspect suicide. Until the autopsy revealed what looked almost certainly to be poison. The man couldn't be identified, and the mystery continued when the passage of a Persian poem was found rolled tightly in his trouser pocket. Join Andrea_Up_Late and Eric Tansey as they discuss the possibility of murder vs suicide, a death mask, DNA matches, and....spies??
