I am absolutely infatuated with this show. I love shows like this. If you like suspenful, mind bending crime documentaries, you will love this show! I started watching this on cable & when I moved, I couldn't get cable so I wasn't able to watch any more of it. I was so happy to see this show on the Play Store. I've been doing anything and everything I can to earn credits just so I can watch this show. I'm on the 3rd episode and I'm positive it only gets better from here! Can't wait to see the rest.

I hope this show returns for a 2nd season. If it doesn't I will be highly disappointed. This was an awesome, gripping true crime serial killer documentary. Lots of pieces of the puzzle are still missing and perhaps a second season could find some of those lost pieces and put them in place and hopefully maybe eventually catch LISK or at least find out who he was. I will be awaiting news of a new season!

Another great show I try not to miss it. I like when crimes that have not been solved to be closed so then the families can finally have closure.
