Sasha Wass and Jeremy Dein reinvestigate a murder that tore a family apart in the 1930s.

Criminal barristers Sasha Wass and Jeremy Dein reinvestigate the historic case against Charlotte Bryant, and the story of a murder that tore a family apart in the 1930s.

Top criminal barristers Sasha Wass and Jeremy Dein reinvestigate the historic case against Charlotte Bryant, and the story of a murder that tore a family apart in the 1930s.

In Dorset, 1935, husband and father-of-five Frederick Bryant drops dead, seemingly poisoned with a fatal dose of arsenic. Suspicion quickly fell on Frederick's wife Charlotte - an adulterer and, in the eyes of the police, a murderess. Charlotte was tried, convicted, and hanged for the murder of her husband Frederick Bryant, placing their five children in an orphanage.

Now in 2017, their youngest son William, who didn't find out about his family's history until he read about it in a newspaper in 1964, is eager to find out the truth about the tragedy which left him an orphan. William and his son David join forces with Sasha and Jeremy to reinvestigate the evidence. Was it a case of accidental poisoning? What role did the intimidation of key witnesses play in the trial? And crucially, do the barristers believe they have a compelling case to present to a crown court judge?
