A Shoe in the Maple Tree: The Murder of Gloria Ward

A single cognac leather dress shoe, size seven, sat seven feet up in a silver maple for thirty years-surviving floods, ice jams and the decay of time-yet it could not say how it got there. Who left Gloria Ward’s shoe in the tree, and how did one small object finally lead detectives across three decades to an answer?

In this episode, we tell what unfolded from the night Gloria Ward left her billing office on October 9, 1992, to the moment a retired postal worker spotted the shoe in Caulfield Nature Preserve on October 14, 2023. We follow the preserved clues, the empty apartment, the dark sedan in the loading alley, and the genealogist whose family-tree work provided the breakthrough that tied the evidence together.
