Peter Robinson invites Simon to Yorkshire, the setting for his successful DCI Banks series, where he reveals the largely untold story of 14-year-old Elsie Frost, who was fatally stabbed while walking home from a sailing lesson in Wakefield in 1965. She had had a choice between two routes home, and not wanting to get her new shoes dirty, she had walked the cleaner path; a path that played home to a killer. Elsie was found in a nearby tunnel having bled to death mere minutes prior to the discovery. The crime rocked the community, culminating in a mistrial after a local man was falsely accused. The case stayed cold for half a century, until an investigation into another crime led police to uncover evidence pointing towards Elsie's killer. As the investigation moved from Rotherham to Barnsley before concluding in Leeds, the episode journeys through many of the familiar landscapes that underpin every Peter Robinson book.

Episode Name.... Karin Slaughter
Season.......... 2x05
Plot............ Karin Slaughter is joined by Simon in her home city of Atlanta, Georgia. She introduces Simon to the case of Paul John Knowles, A.K.A. the Casanova Killer'; a spree killer who terrorised the whole of the US, and who came within a few miles of Karin's family home. The arc and mythology of the Casanova' character finds parallels in the male villains of many Karin Slaughter books. She explains that Casanova' has been recycled into an adjective for a romantic ladies' man, when in actuality, Casanova himself was a kidnapper and a rapist, who bragged about drugging women before having his violent way with them. This is not a romantic character but a criminal; a predator bent on control. Along the journey of the episode, Simon and the audience learn how the real case of the Casanova Killer'influenced Karin's writing of an historical crime novel, and provoked her to explore the motives of killers with a hatred of women
