Uncovering Soil and Bricks: Searching for Hearths

Brian Kernohan decides to find out if a letter, held by his family for generations, really does reveal the location of a murder victim’s remains in rural Ireland. Brian and his team of experts decide to bring a digger on site, but there is still confusion about where the ‘Big house’ actually stood. However, as they dig deeper they uncover something strange. During a visit to the Seminary where the alleged murderer and victim went to argicultural college together, Brian finds himself wondering about their relationship and the secret ‘matter relating to ourselves two’ that the murderer wrote about in his confession.
