Summary

On October 5th, 1980, Detective John Williams responds to the scene where a young woman has been found, raped, murdered, and discarded on the side of a remote Nevada road. Investigators have no clue to her identity. With no leads and very little evidence, the case goes cold for 30 years. Now, Detective Joseph Ebert and famed genetic genealogist Barbara Rae-Venter turn to new evolutions in forensic science, and the public, for help finding the nameless woman’s identity...and possibly her killer.
