74 | Murder at The Crumbles

In the summer of 1920, Irene Munro chose a solo holiday in Eastbourne, on the south-east coast of England, over joining her mother in Edinburgh. Days later, her body was found buried on the remote Crumbles beach by a family on holiday. She had been violently murdered. As police investigated, newspapers suggested she had led a double life. With the help of witnesses, detectives began to piece together what happened and who was responsible.
