Soon to be the Netflix Limited Series Unbelievable, starring Toni Collette, Merritt Wever, and Kaitlyn Dever Two Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists tell the riveting true crime story of a teenager charged with lying about having been rapedand the detectives who followed a winding path to arrive at the. But they also had yet another victim - a young woman whose identity was a mystery, a possible missing link. After weeks of meticulous investigation, they had a name. Galbraith and Hendershot soon realised they were dealing with a serial rapist: a man who took calculated steps to erase all physical evidence, who photographed each of his victims, threatening to release the images online if the women went to the police. Galbraith contacted the detective on that case, Edna Hendershot, and they joined forces. It bore an eerie resemblance to a rape that had taken place months earlier in a nearby town. More than two years later, some 1,600 kilometres away, detective Stacy Galbraith was assigned to a case of sexual assault. The police convicted her of making a false report. Confronted with the seeming inconsistencies, Marie broke down and said her story was a fabrication - a bid for attention.

Within days, police - and even those closest to Marie - became suspicious of her story: details of the crime just didn’t seem plausible. On 11 August 2008, 18-year-old Marie reported that a masked man had broken into her home and raped her. It was an easy case to close until two detectives cracked it back open. She said she was raped police said she lied. Two Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists uncover the true story of Marie.
