Blackpool is a town built on lights and laughter, a place where families once came for the arcades, the tower, the sea air. On a cold night after Halloween 2003, 14-year-old Charlene Downes set off through the town centre and didn’t come home. The posters went up, the cameras were checked, and then the rumours began. What followed would expose something far darker than a missing-persons case.

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s 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 “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
