A town in West Cork is rocked when Sophie Toscan du Plantier is murdered and journalist Ian Bailey is arrested because he was the at the scene.
Jim Sheridan talks to a key witness who called the Irish police back in 1996 with information about Sophie Toscan du Plantier's murder.
False leads and changing witness statements muddy the investigation of Sophie's murder. Despite having over 50 initial suspects, no charges were made.
The investigation intensifies as the French authorities take over and a battle between cultures and judicial systems looms large.
After 24 years of suspicion, the French authorities put Ian Bailey on trial in absentia. Jim Sheridan conducts a unique cross-examination.
