In the summer of 1967, 19-year-old Brenda Holland took a job as a makeup supervisor with The Lost Colony outdoor drama in Manteo, N.C. Excited to continue training for a potential career in the theatre, she embraced the opportunity with joy and enthusiasm. But after only a month on the island, Brenda disappeared after a date with a Lost Colony cast member. Her deceased body turned up five days later in the Albemarle Sound, and despite an extensive investigation, remained unsolved until a journalist dug into the case and provided his personal theory of what happened. This week we&#39;ll discuss Brenda Holland&#39;s life and background along with the details of her disappearance and cause of death, and next week&#39;s episode will cover the list of suspects and who was likely the young woman&#39;s killer.
