Snowball - Episode 3: The Coconut Wireless

About this episode

The episode explores the mysterious circumstances surrounding Lezlie Manukian's departure from Hawaii and the investigation by Greg Wards.

The stories Lezlie Manukian has told people about her time in Hawaii usually end with murderous local mobsters running her off the island. But this is also coming from the tall tale telling Californian trickster we've heard can even swindle a bank. When Lezlie left New Zealand, never to be seen again, it seemed like the only way for Greg Wards to understand who he really married was to ask the Hawaiian police what really happened.
