Take a fascinating deep dive into the dark world of forensic science as experts team up to solve the identity of an unknown woman by exploring the rapidly evolving techniques being used to break the most notorious cold cases.

Fans of true crime shows like CSI, NCIS, Criminal Minds, and Law and Order know that when it comes to “getting the bad guy” behind bars, your best chance of success boils down to the strength of your evidence—and the forensic science used to obtain it. Beyond the silver screen, forensic science has been used for decades to help solve even the most tough-to-crack cases. In 2018, the accused Golden State Killer, Joseph DeAngelo, was finally apprehended after a decades-long investigation thanks to a very recent technique called forensic genealogy, which has since led to the closure of hundreds of cold cases, bringing long-awaited justice to victims and families alike. But when it comes to solving these incredibly difficult cases, forensic genealogy is just the tip of the iceberg—and many readers have no idea just how far down that iceberg goes.

For Laurah Norton, forensic science was always more of a passion than anything else. But after learning about a mishandled 1990s cold case involving missing twins, she was spurred to action, eventually creating a massively popular podcast and building a platform that helped bring widespread attention and resources to the case. LAY THEM TO REST builds on Laurah’s fascination with these investigations, introducing readers to the history and evolution of forensic science, from the death masks used in Ancient Rome to the 3-D facial reconstruction technology used today. Incorporating the stories of real-life John & Jane Does from around the world, Laurah also examines how changing identification methods have helped solve the most iconic cold cases. Along the way readers will also get to see Laurah solve a case in real time with forensic anthropologist Dr. Amy Michael, as they try to determine the identity of “Ina” Jane Doe, a woman whose head was found in a brush in an Illinois park in 1993.

More than just a chronicle of the history of forensics, LAY THEM TO REST is also a celebration of the growing field of experts, forensic artists, and anthropologists (many of whom Laurah talks to in the book), who work tirelessly to bring closure to these unsolved cases. And of course, this book asks why some cases go unsolved, highlighting the “missing missing,” the sex workers, undocumented, the cases that so desperately need our attention, but so rarely get it.

Engrossing, informative, heartbreaking, and hopeful, LAY THEM TO REST is a deep dive into the world of forensic science, showing readers how far we’ve come in cracking cases and catching killers, and illuminating just how far we have yet to go.

探索犯罪科学那黑暗的世界，专家联手解开一位未知名女性的身份之谜，通过研究正在迅速发展的技术来破解最臭名昭著的冷案。 像CSI、NCIS、 Criminal Minds和Law & Order等真实犯罪剧粉丝们都知道，在“抓到坏人”的成功机会上，最好的途径就是证据的力量——以及用来获取这些证据的犯罪科学。荧幕之外，犯罪科学已用于几十年来帮助解决最棘手的案件。2018年，涉嫌金州杀手案的被告乔什·丹尼尔被抓获，归功于一种最近开发的技术：犯罪基因学法，在此之后导致了数十起冷案的关闭，并为受害者和亲属带来已久的正义。但要解这些极具挑战性的案子，犯罪基因学只是冰山一角——而很多读者都对此一无所知。 劳拉·诺顿对犯罪科学的兴趣一直比其他任何事物都要浓厚。但在了解到有关20世纪90年代一起处理不当的失踪双胞胎冷案时，她感到义不容辞，最终创建了一个广受欢迎的播客，并建立了一个平台，从而引起广泛关注并提供了资源支持此案。《把他们安葬》一书承袭了劳拉对这些调查的兴趣，介绍了犯罪科学的历史和演变过程，从古罗马使用的死亡面具到如今使用的三维面部重建技术。结合世界各地现实生活中的真实“约翰”与“简”的故事，劳拉也研究了如何改变的身份方法是如何帮助解决最著名的冷案的。在这一过程中，读者还将亲眼目睹劳拉与法医人类学家艾米·迈耶博士一起实时解决一个案件——确定“伊娜”简 Doe 的身份，她的一头被发现于1993年伊利诺伊州公园中的树丛中。 不仅是一部犯罪科学历史的记录，《把他们安葬》也是对不断发展的专家群体、犯罪艺术家和人类学家（劳拉在书中与之进行过交谈的许多人）这一领域的庆祝。这些坚持不懈地为解决这些未解决案件而工作的人们。当然，这本书也探讨了为什么有些案子总是无法得到解决，并强调那些“失踪的失踪者”、性工作者、无证件人士、那些如此迫切需要我们的注意但经常得不到关注的案件。 引人入胜、信息丰富、感人至深又充满希望，《把他们安葬》深入犯罪科学的世界，展示读者在破解案件和抓捕凶手方面取得了多大的进步，并照亮了我们还有多少路要走。
