Description

This week, in Dickinson, North Dakota, a grisly, and horrifying scene is found in a small town motel, populated by transient oil workers, and drifters, of all types. The problem is that no one in this tiny police department had ever dealt with a double homicide, and it shows. The case goes cold, after years pass, but eventually FBI agent John Douglas puts a profile together, that matches one of the original suspects, perfectly. When they track this man down, they find out he's definitely murdered another woman, and is wanted for being a suspect in many more, across multiple states. It looks like the beginning of uncovering the depths of a serial killer... until it all stops cold. A crazy story, with a wild ending!! Along the way, we find out that you shouldn't ever be outside, past 5pm in North Dakota, that you should never trust anyone who has ever worked at a carnival, and that sometimes, FBI profiles can be incredibly accurate!!
