Summary

In 1974, police in Iceland were dealing with two separate disappearances in just the span of months. In a country where violent crime was almost unheard of, the pressure was on to solve both cases.

When a suspect in an unrelated case said she had a nightmare about one of the missing people, police seized the opportunity. That nightmare turned into confessions from six people.

Or perhaps it's so full of holes that you're one memory away from having total amnesia.

1:06.0

What we remember and how we remember them can be entirely subjective. Different people can often recall the same event very differently.

1:14.6

Usually, most of us don't second guess our memories

beyond questioning whether we turned off the oven before leaving the house
