My husband Kevin | 9

Elise says she lived with a man who had many sides. A charming, romantic, funny husband, who would turn into a controlling, stonewalling, cruel stranger at the flip of a switch. Then there were the threats. Eerily specific threats of violence, threats of murder. Next, she alleges, came the actual violence. Years after they’d separated, she heard her ex-husband was a key suspect in the murder of 23-year-old Rachelle Childs. Dear Rachelle is hosted and investigated by journalist Ashlea Hansen, who teams up with retired detective and cold case specialist Damian Loone, and Rachelle’s sister Kristy.

What lies beneath | 8

Rachelle Childs has been dead five years when new evidence leads authorities to exhume and re-examine her body. Her family consents, but otherwise the exhumation remains secret until a key POI is informed that, while he answers questions at Rachelle’s inquest, her body lies in the morgue beneath that very courtroom. The inquest is explosive. Nine persons of interest are scrutinised, and her body is exhumed to help answer some vital questions. Was there ever a Walkinshaw? What happened to Rachelle in those missing nine hours after she left work? Who started the rumour about bikies cutting Rachelle’s fingers off? The inquest ran for two years but concluded with an open finding. Dear Rachelle is hosted and investigated by journalist Ashlea Hansen, who teams up with retired detective and renowned cold case specialist Damian Loone, and Rachelle's sister Kristy.

Prince Charming | 7

First it's the thrill of singles mingles nights, champagne, prawns and flowers. Then, in an instant, the switch is flicked. The pleading turns nasty. The menacing phone calls start. Sometimes fixation turns into threats of outright violence. A Person Of Interest’s previous partners come forward with allegations about his patterns of behaviour. Why was that same POI telling people about forensic evidence likely known only to police and those who’d conducted Rachelle Childs' autopsy?

Crooked River Road | 3

Fear intensifies around the usually quiet towns of Bargo and Gerroa, as word spreads a serial killer could be responsible for two murders.
