On a spring morning in June 2001, an eight-year-old girl gathers moss for her grandmother’s hanging baskets in a forest near Ballinamore in Co Leitrim.
The child lets out a scream, she had discovered a body. The remains belonged to Enniskillen businessman Gerry McGinley and it was clear that he been murdered.
He had been killed by his own wife Julie and her lover - in fact, they were already in custody over it.
But it wasn’t a simple tale of adultery. It involved hotel sex with strangers, lies, blackmail and videotape – and included many prominent people in Fermanagh.

Andrew Madden researched this sordid story for the Belfast Telegraph.
