When a former boxer is abducted from his home and brutally murdered, detectives in West Yorkshire are left with a case built almost entirely on circumstantial evidence. Then they discover a few seemingly insignificant dog hairs on the victim's clothing.

What follows is a groundbreaking investigation that stretches from England to California and changes forensic science forever. But just when the case appears to be over, one final twist brings one more question: Who Was Sasha?
