Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable โ that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskiaโs discovery of her husbandโs secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the โperfect victim:โ who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
