In the 1980s and 1990s, a series of brutal murders of women and young prostitutes haunted Washington state. The hunt for the "Green River Killer"—Gary Ridgway—would become one of the longest and most disturbing criminal investigations in U.S. history.
The series would explore Ridgway's cold, methodical approach, the impact on his victims, and the detectives' obsession with capturing him, while society ignored the lives lost along the riverbanks.
