The Lady of the Dunes

Description

In 1974, a girl walking to her family car on Cape Cod found the body of a woman in a grove of trees. Nearly 46 years later, the woman remains only known as Lady of the Dunes. Who was she? Who killed her? These are answers the Provincetown police continue to seek.

In the event you have any information on the Lady of the Dunes, you can call the Provincetown police at 508-487-1212
