On the outskirts of hamilton, ontario, a jogger makes a gruesome discovery – the partially mummified remains of a human body.

She has been brutally bludgeoned to death, but no missing person’s report has ever been filed. As police investigate, they discover evidence of domestic strife, including a love triangle and charges of assault. Determined to find the killer, police dig further into the victim’s life, doggedly tracking down a former lover to new york city, where they uncover another crime. But it is a forensic entomologist and her knowledge of the minute lives of insects that leads investigators back to ontario and the arrest of the woman’s husband for murder.

Forensic scientists now had an opportunity which seldom occurs: to compare the microscopic marks on the presumed murder weapon with the marks on the victim’s bone.

A woman disappears without a trace; even though foul play is suspected, the leads don’t pan out and the trail turns cold.
