1965 - Bangor, Maine. In March of 1965, 54-year-old Effie MacDonald went to her job as a chambermaid at the Bangor House Hotel, a prominent luxury hotel in downtown Bangor, Maine. At 1:15pm, she was seen speaking with a man in the hotel's corridor, and she wasn't seen again... until 2:45pm, when her body was found in a vacant 3rd floor room. She'd been strangled, beaten, and raped. Around this time, the Boston Strangler had been terrorizing Massachusetts with a string of unsolved murders. Could Effie be the victim of a copycat serial killer? To this day, Effie's case is one of Maine's oldest unsolved cases. Effie had no enemies. She lived a modest and quiet life. Who would brutally murder such a respectable Maine woman? This is the story of Effie Terrill MacDonald.
