Each episode of the show focuses on a single murder case, exploring the backstory of the victims and suspects, and the many twists and turns that came with the investigation. From Jack the Ripper to Dr. Crippen, the show covers all the major cases that have been in the public domain for over a century. It also includes lesser-known cases that are just as disturbing, such as the murder of Mary Jane Kelly, who was one of Jack the Ripper’s victims.

The quality of the show is impressive, as every aspect of the investigation is brought to life with stunning visuals and dramatizations of key events.
