Adapted from the best-selling novel, this is a tense, provocative mini-series about a respected female scientist (Emily Watson) and the single impulsive act that leads to her standing trial for murder.

The murder trial continues, with Costley's defense resting on evidence of an underlying personality disorder. But the prosecution rips this theory apart and Costley's case seems to lie in tatters. Costley's back is up against the wall; has he reached his tipping point? If the court finds out Yvonne lied about their affair, will they believe anything else she's said?
