But is her story everything she claims it to be?Fifteen-year-old Betty Kane can recall every detail of the room where she says she was held at the country house known as The Franchise - even the crack in its round window.

As the case sparks a media frenzy, it is up to unassuming village solicitor Robert Blair to find out.
