What Happened to Margaret Kilcoyne?
Episode description
Dr. Margaret Mary Kilcoyne was certain she had recently made a medical discovery that was going to win her a Nobel prize. But even before Margaret could begin to celebrate, she would vanish. Margaret's brother Leo would claim that Margaret had been under a bunch of stress, but if she had her colleagues hadn't really noticed- stating her odd behavior in the days before she went missing as just Margaret being Margaret.
Did Margaret Kilcoyne have a mental breakdown and take her own life? Did she simply walk away from her current life and start over somewhere else? Or could she have been a victim of foul play?
It's a case that has left those in the small Nantucket town without any answers but with a whole bunch of theories.
