The Inventor and the Nautilus: Peter Madsen and the Murder of Kim Wall
On August 10, 2017, journalist Kim Wall boarded Peter Madsen’s homemade submarine in Copenhagen harbor for an interview. By morning, Madsen had been pulled from the water. The Nautilus was sinking. Wall was gone. Host Alexander Lawson traces the rise of Denmark’s self-taught submarine builder, the last hours of a reporter days from moving to Beijing, the shifting stories Madsen told police, and the trial that ended in a rare Danish life sentence. A story about invention, control, and a woman who should have come home.
