Season 4, Episode 13: Murder on the Viking Sally
The cruise ferry “Viking Sally” has more dark history than some empires.
In 1994, the cruise liner M/S Estonia sank, taking hundreds of lives with it to the bottom of the Baltic Sea.
What most people don’t know is that seven years before it’s sinking, the same ship (then known as Viking Sally) was the scene of the unsolved murder of Klaus Schlekle and attempted murder of Bettina Taxis who were on an overnight ferry trip from Sweden to Finland.
