    Charmain Spiers, originally from Arbroath, a small fishing town on Scotland's east coast, married an African preacher and moved to Ghana. Her family has always believed her husband - a self-proclaimed prophet, named Eric Adusah – was responsible for her death. Her body was discovered in a hotel room and her death was determined as “heroin poisoning”. Her husband was seen at the hotel on the night of her death and a test of her hair showed no long-term heroin use. An investigation team from BBC Disclosure has been to Ghana to hear from witnesses about what happened in the days leading up to and night of her death. They have spoken to her mum, friends and her son who was just 8 when she died and is now 18. He stayed in the UK with his dad when she moved to Ghana. The team also spoke to police and prosecutors in Ghana, and various people who knew Eric Adusah. In addition, the BBC Disclosure team also doorstepped Eric Adusah who now lives in the US with his latest wife and runs a church there.
