When a man died on a hillside, nobody knew who he was.
But a local journalist was determined to find out.
This was somebody’s son, somebody’s friend. Someone must be missing him.
The eyes are the window to the soul. But the teeth hold many secrets. Could Caroline Wilkinson’s facial reconstruction be key to solving the case?
This episode includes references to death, decay and dissection, which some listeners may find distressing. Our victim is fictional, but the science and the scientists are very real.
