Dead runaways were no novelty on these mean streets, but the Caitlin O'Riordan case was different.

But instead of a killer, they discover a ghastly scene: a jar containing human remains--along with a cryptic clue leading to an unlikely witness. Laura Somerville lives far from the squalor of the Badlands, and seemingly light-years from any connection to a murdered runaway. But moments aft
