Presenter Stephen Fairclough meets three families whose loved ones have been murdered or died in suspicious circumstances while travelling abroad.

He hears calls forΒ better support and help from the British authorities for other bereaved families who find themselves in the same position.

It's more than four years sinceΒ Alison Barker (pictured, right) was told her partner and father of her three children, Andrew Raymond Rodick, had been found dead in India while travelling on business.Β 
Alison, from Haverfordwest, feels she's been failed by the Foreign Office in her search for answers and justice for Andrew.

They flew out to repatriate his body and have since set up a charity to help other bereaved families to bring their loved ones home.

AndΒ Sue Jones, from Tredomen near Brecon, whose daughter Kirsty was murdered while backpacking in Thailand in August 2000, speaks of her hopes that the case can be solved - before it's too late.
