In 2012 the abduction of 5-year-old April Jones triggered the biggest missing person search in British police history. Within 24 hours a local man, Mark Bridger, was arrested for her abduction. 4 days later, he was charged with her murder. For the first time, this film has access to the police interviews with Bridger.
They reveal how, detectives desperate to find April alive, interrogated Bridger for almost 18 hours. The tapes take us into the mind of a murderer, in his own words.
