The investigation into Ada Haradine’s homicide is reopened with the hope that new forensic technology and a fresh approach might provide the answers detectives have been searching for. But when the tests come up short, the team turns to old suspects and new strategies, using investigative subpoenas to shake loose information they think could finally lead to a breakthrough.
