The walls were untouched. The clock had frozen at 4:20 a.m. And all that remained of Mary was a slippered foot, part of her spine, and a shrunken skull. Her death would become one of the most famous unsolved mysteries in modern forensic history, sparking decades of debate over spontaneous human combustion, the wick effect, and whether science has ever truly explained what happened that night.
