In a suburban town in Colorado, the body of Sylvia Qualye was discovered by her father, lying on the floor of her living room. Her brutal murder sparked an investigation which would span 40 years, and rely on the incredible forensic progression of that time - as well as the diligent detective work which preserved a key and unlikely piece of evidence... a coke can.
Smoking Gun is a What's The Story original series, narrated by Romola Garai and Britain's best known forensic scientist Tracy Alexander. And is supported by the British Academy of Forensic Sciences.
