There is a temptation, when telling the story of Katherine Knight, to begin at the end. With John Price. With Aberdeen. With the crime that made her name infamous. But by the time Price entered Knight's life, there was already a long history behind her. Three men, in particular, occupied important places in that history. David Kellett. David Saunders. John Chillingworth.

This week's bonus episode takes a closer look at the psychological evidence presented after Rachel Barber's murder. We'll examine the fictional identity of Jem Southall, the expert reports, Caroline Reed Robertson's fixation on Rachel, and the questions psychologists were still trying to answer long after the crime.
