Hosts Lauryn and Nima uncover the perplexing case of Daniel Tessier, a seemingly forgotten story of murder, family, and unanswered questions. In the fading township of Dalton Mills, Ontario, the year 1946 saw tensions rise as illicit fur poachers clashed with regulated trappers, forcing Dan to make a fateful choice between his livelihood and his community. Beyond the surface of feuding bushmen lies a web of lethal family secrets, waiting to be unraveled. With the passage of time, the unsolved case sheds light on the enduring consequences of trauma and the mesmerizing pull of an unresolved mystery.
