''In this gritty and engrossing documentary series, clinical psychologist Nigel Latta examines the lives of six of New Zealand's worst murderers to answer these questions. Latta takes you behind the headlines to the real stories.

Terry Clark (aka the real Mr Asia) wanted to be a gangster and, by the end of his short career, he had caused dozens of deaths and amassed a major fortune from drug dealing.
His story is one of a bad boy gone worse - as a boy he was cruel and manipulative and, as a man, he extended his repertoire to include torture and murder.
In 1980 he was convicted of the murder of his former partner, Martyn Johnstone, and sentenced to life imprisonment in Parkhurst Prison on the Isle of Wight.
Arguably New Zealand's biggest crime boss, he mysteriously died two years later.'' TVNZ; tvnz.co.nz; 18/06/2008
