Episode Summary
Julian Fellowes investigates the unsolved murders of Violet Sidney and members of her family. In 1929, Violet, a relatively wealthy woman, died from arsenic poisoning. When two other exhumed bodies are examined, they reveal the same fate happened to them. What's more shocking is that all the dead people are related. Could it be the work of a serial killer or is someone closer to home responsible?''moreless
