Part family saga, part crime drama, this is an investigation without policemen, based on the trilogy of novels (Requiem for an Angel) by award-winning crime writer, Andrew Taylor.

It is the story of the making of a murderer, told in reverse, starting with the modern day! Like an archaeological dig, each of the psychological thrillers strips away the layers of a sociopath's history, hurtling backwards to show us how and when the mind became twisted, and the soul sick.
