Summary

This week, in Fairbanks, Alaska, a young woman is found horribly killed, in a college dorm's shared bathroom. This causes the dorms to empty out, and a massive investigation to be launched. After being unable to arrest any of the suspects, the case goes cold. Until new technology, and ancestry databases make it possible to link the killer's DNA to the scene. It turns out to be someone that detectives barely gave a second thought, who has been hiding in plain sight, working an unlikely career. Has he also continued his killing ways?

Along the way, we find out that everything in Alaska is extremely far away from each other, that dorms are just crawling with people who seem like murder suspects, and that no killer can predict future murder solving technology!!
