Here’s a preview of Deep Cover, a show about people who lead double lives. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jake Halpern reveals webs of deception and dark underworlds, through interviews with federal agents and convicted criminals. In Deep Cover’s new season, Never Seen Again, we hear the story of two young women, living on opposite sides of the country, who went missing at almost the exact same time. Seven years later, their stories collided when one of these young women resurfaced – posing as the other. A small town detective became obsessed with the case. He believes he's uncovered an imposter. A fraud. A foreign spy. A nationwide manhunt commences. No one can find her. Twenty years later, that woman is telling Jake her side of the story. Listen to Deep Cover, and get the full story, now at https://podcasts.pushkin.fm/dc3?sid=women . Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
