Abstract:
The gripping true crime story of committed investigators from two countries and their cooperation in the relentless pursuit of a brutal murderer. From the moment David Tanasichuk reports his wife, Maria, missing, claiming they were having marital troubles and she had decided to take a break by leaving town, lie after lie unravels. David's reputation for violence and drug abuse makes investigators take his veiled threats against them seriously. Local police, frustrated by a fruitless wintertime search through miles of frozen wilderness, finally enlist the aid of Maine game wardens along with cadaver dogs and their dedicated volunteer handlers.
