Summary
"Four years ago Eliza Dacey was brutally murdered. Within hours, her killer was caught. Wasn't he?" So reads the opening titles of Jack Quick's new true-crime documentary. A skilled producer, Jack knows that the bigger the conspiracy, the higher the ratings. Curtis Wade, convicted of Eliza's murder on circumstantial evidence and victim of a biased police force, is the perfect subject. Just before the finale, Jack uncovers evidence that may prove Curtis guilty after all. Convinced it will ruin his show, Jack disposes of the proof and delivers the finale unedited: proposing that Curtis is innocent. But when Curtis is released, and a new victim is found bearing horrifying similarities, Jack realises that he may have helped a guilty man out of jail
