E1 - The Murder of Nikitta Grender

**This Episode contains descriptions of a graphic nature, including crimes against children. Listener discretion is advised**

In February 2011, the body of a 19-year-old female was found inside a burning flat. As more details emerged, it soon became apparent that the fire was no accident, and the victim, Nikitta Grender - who was 38 weeks pregnant with a baby girl, had been brutally murdered, sending shockwaves throughout the city of Newport, South Wales.

Police initially questioned Nikitta's boyfriend Ryan, but when her true killer is identified and the shocking details begin to unfold, Nikitta's mother Marcia is left questioning if her own Nan had foreseen this unimaginable crime all along?
