On 1 May 1984, 45-year-old Anthony Littler was found dead on a dark footpath in north London. Earlier that night, he had left East Finchley Underground station on his way home after an evening with friends. No one had witnessed the attack, nothing had been stolen, and a mysterious emergency call left investigators with even more questions. The murder remained unsolved for more than four decades, but an undercover police operation codenamed Snowpitch would eventually prove crucial to solving the case.

It was a Saturday in June 1990, and Trevaline Evans was standing behind the counter of her small antiques shop in Llangollen, Wales. People came and went throughout the morning. Some stopped for a chat. Others browsed the things she had for sale. Around lunchtime, Trevaline locked the door. Before she left, she put up a small handwritten note. It said: Back in 2 minutes. Two minutes passed. Then ten. Then half an hour. But Trevaline would never come back.

In January 2017, 20-year-old Birna Brjánsdóttir disappeared after a night out in central Reykjavík. In Iceland, where serious violent crime was rare and young people often walked through the city alone late at night, there was initially little reason to suspect that anything serious had happened. But when Birna failed to turn up for work the following morning, concerns began to grow. Her disappearance would soon grip the entire country and lead to the largest search operation in modern Icelandic history.
