Rania Alayed, a young mother of three, vanished under disturbing circumstances. As police investigate, her estranged husband, Ahmed al-Khatib, becomes a prime suspect after unsettling evidence is found at his home. But the case takes an even darker turn when Ahmed's family reveals shocking details that lead authorities to a harrowing discovery. Killed Without A Trace explores the huge task facing police forces and prosecutors across the UK as they try to get justice for families and prove a murder has happened without that vital piece of evidence – the body. British actress Joanna Scanlan explores these remarkable and unconventional investigations, uncovering the lengths detectives must go to prove a murder has occurred. Joanna also reveals the heart-rending stories of families who, despite seeing a killer brought to justice, never had the chance to lay their loved ones to rest and are still searching for closure all these years later.
