This episode delves into the puzzling murder of Leiland, focusing on a suspicious car spotted by his daughter, Johanna, outside his home on the night of his murder. Johanna, with her extensive knowledge of cars, provides a vivid description of the vehicle's distinct features, including a partial license plate number and unique taillight design, fueling a longstanding mystery.

We explore the eerie details of the crime scene and the suspicious circumstances surrounding the murder, including the unusual visitor parking spot and the significant lack of any forthcoming witness, leaving unanswered questions looming over the case.

Additionally, we introduce the individuals tied to Leiland, revealing complex relationships and shadowy connections. Particular focus is given to Laura Thomas, Leiland's cleaning lady, whose intimate knowledge of Leiland's life and mysterious death raise further speculation in this 25-year-old cold case.
