When Katie Simpson, a talented jockey, died unexpectedly in 2020, the majority of the horse community accepted that she had taken her own life, but a local journalist questioned the official conclusion. Katie’s death triggered a memory of an old case she covered, a case with too many similarities to Katie's. At the centre of her suspicions was Katie’s brother-in-law, an influential champion showjumper, jockey and horse trainer, Jonathan Creswell. Now, in this new three-part documentary series told by the investigators, Katie’s friends and family, and Jonathan Creswell’s circle, the series reveals how a secret investigation ended in a high stakes murder trial with an ending that no one expected.
