In Episode 15 of "Sunday Night Mystery," Brett explores the unsolved New Year’s Day murder of Esther Soper in 1976 in Plymouth, Devon. Esther, a 51-year-old devout widow and member of the Plymouth Brethren's Exclusive Order, was found brutally murdered in her home. Her body was discovered by fellow church members after she failed to attend a meeting. She had been bludgeoned with a cider bottle and strangled with her own tights, then wrapped in a curtain.

The investigation initially suggested a robbery, though no valuable items seemed to be missing. Attention focused on a man named Clifford Sparks, who had visited Esther's house days before the murder, but no substantial leads emerged.

Despite extensive police efforts, including tens of thousands of interviews and modern DNA testing, the case remains unsolved. The peculiarities of the crime scene and Esther's strict religious lifestyle add layers of mystery. Today, her murder remains the oldest unsolved homicide in the Devon and Cornwall police files, leaving her family and the community without closure.
