About this episode

Some have even claimed this presence saved their lives. There have been so many cases that it's been called The Third Person Factor. Athena and Tiernan have got all the evidence together, so it's for you Chief Detectives to decide: is there really a guiding spirit out there, or is it all a trick of the mind?
