De: Benjamin Stevenson

Narrado por: Rupert Degas, David Tredinnick, Jennifer Vuletic, Glenn van Oosterom, Paul English, Mariele Runacre-Temple

A nail-biting thriller that turns popular true-crime such as Serial and Making a Murderer on its head, Greenlight shocks with twists and turns you’ll never see coming.

Four years ago Eliza Dacey was brutally murdered. Within hours, her killer was caught. Wasn’t he?

So reads the opening titles of Jack Quick’s new true-crime documentary. A skilled producer, Jack knows that the bigger the conspiracy, the higher the ratings. Curtis Wade, convicted of Eliza’s murder on circumstantial evidence and victim of a biased police force, is the perfect subject. Millions of viewers agree.

Just before the finale, Jack uncovers a minor detail that may prove Curtis guilty after all. Convinced it will ruin his show, Jack disposes of the evidence and delivers the finale unedited: proposing that Curtis is innocent. But when Curtis is released, and a new victim is found bearing horrifying similarities to the original murder, Jack realises that he may have helped a guilty man out of jail. And as the only one who knows the real evidence of the case, he is the only one who can send him back....
