Episode description

In Preston, a city tucked away in the North of England, the brutal murder of a young sex worker sparks terror that a violent killer is on the loose. But although DNA and blood samples are left on her body, forensic testing is too basic to match any suspects — so the murderer, Christopher Smith, escapes. He leads a peaceful life surrounded by family until, just 6 days before his death, police arrest him for driving while drunk. Smith leaves a guilty deathbed confession that will finally re-open the unsolved murder case and question how police let a deadly criminal slip through their grasp for so long.
