The bone is fresh and the remains are still topped by wisps of hair – it’s a recent burial, and a case Tempe must take.
Tempe determines that the deceased is a middle-aged white male – but who was he? Why was he buried in a clandestine grave? And what does an unusual vertical fracture of one of the vertebrae signify?
