Contains some scenes which some viewers may find upsetting.

Emily Wood delves into the 63-page coroner's report uncovered at the London Archives. Among the witness statements, post-mortem records and inquest findings, are two separate accounts from Eva's boyfriend, Arthur Brooks. The problem is, his two statements to police don't quite match. Former CSI, Tina Orr Munro, reads through the evidence to flag potential inconsistencies in Arthur's accounts, questions about the murder weapon, evidence gathered from the scene. Then, the words of Eva's thirteen-year-old daughter Ruby, who was in the flat that night. Were the right conclusions drawn? And did Eva's death get the investigation it deserved?
