A nine-episode narrator-driven true-crime series on the death of Kathleen Peterson — found at 2:43 a.m. at the bottom of a back staircase in an upscale Durham, North Carolina home, her novelist husband Michael covered in blood and calling it a fall. The series follows the homicide ruling, the unraveling of Michael's invented war-hero past, and the secret double life prosecutors built into a motive — then a second woman found dead at the foot of a staircase sixteen years earlier. It tracks the guilty verdict, the discredited blood analyst who tore the case back open, a neighbor's owl theory the town turned into a punchline, and an Alford plea that set Michael free without ever answering the question. Two women. Two staircases. One man in the house both nights.
