When Iversen County’s medical examiner sends over a routine trace-evidence sample from an “accidental exposure” death, freelance forensic palynologist Ruth Calder expects an afternoon’s work and a one-page report. Instead, the pollen washed from a dead woman’s coat tells a story the case file doesn’t: wrong plants, wrong water, wrong place entirely. As Ruth follows the grains back to their source, she finds herself standing in a cranberry bog that isn’t supposed to matter, holding a slide that links a supposedly closed case to one that was never solved at all.
