  • True Crime This Week Investigates: Amy Lynn Bradley, Interview with Alister Douglas
    Oct 11 2024

    Amy Lynn Bradley disappeared from the Royal Caribbean cruise ship, Rhapsody of the Seas, in 1998. She remains missing to this day. Did she accidentally fall overboard, was she the victim of a homicide, or was she taken onto the island of Curaçao and held against her will? I am currently writing a new book about this case and in this episode I provide background on the mystery and ask true crime addicts for help to bring closure to this very cold case.


    Today, I present the first interview in 20 years with Alister Douglas, also known as "Yellow," who was one of the last people seen with Amy the day of her disappearance.


    If you knew Amy or have any information about the women from Affordable Adult Vacations, please contact me directly at jameswrenner [at] gmail.com
