91热爆

Isotope analysis of the teeth reveals where the Isdal Woman spent her early years, while there's silence in room 426 and awkward meetings at the hotel restaurant.

On 29th November 1970 the badly burnt body of a woman was found on a bleak mountainside near Bergen in Western Norway. The police couldn鈥檛 identify her and it was unclear whether her death had been a murder, a suicide or an accident.

Objects had been laid out around the body and the labels were removed from her clothes. But nobody knew who she was. This unsolved mystery has haunted Norway for 47 years.

After a two year investigation, the Norwegian broadcaster NRK has joined the 91热爆 World Service to explore the story of the Isdal Woman鈥攁s she was known鈥攁nd to try and find out who she was and what she was doing in Norway.

The presenters Marit Higraff and Neil McCarthy embark on a journey around Norway and beyond, talking to witnesses and searching through archives as they piece together a picture of the Isdal Woman鈥檚 movements and motivations. It鈥檚 a journey through time to the middle of the Cold War and a divided Europe with spies on both sides. It鈥檚 also an investigation which uses modern scientific and forensic techniques like DNA and isotope analysis: tools which police use to crack identification cases today which didn鈥檛 exist in 1970.
