The body of Leanne Williams, 47, was found by police at around 2pm on Thursday at her address in Gomer Road, Swansea.
Police said Leanne had suffered ‘serious injuries’ inconsistent with an assault.
Two men have been arrested as part of the investigation and are currently in police custody.
Detective Superintendent Mark O’Shea said: “This tragic news has come as shock to the local community and of course is devastating for her family who we are supporting. We have a team of officers working around the clock on this investigation and I can confirm that we have two men in police custody. At this time we aren’t looking for anybody else.
“We are piecing together Leanne’s last known movements from 6pm on Monday, February 24, to 2.20pm the following Thursday when she was found by officers.
“Anyone who lives in or who has travelled through Gomer Road or surrounding areas during this time are asked to check their private CCTV or dashcam footage for anything that may be relevant. It doesn’t matter how insignificant it may seem. We particularly want to hear from people who knew Leanne and who have not yet spoken with officers.”
A police cordon remains in place at the address on Gomer Road.
