Ed Edwards was arrested in 2009 and found guilty of five murders over 20 years. He died in prison two years later, after which Wayne Wolfe discovered that Edwards was his estranged grandfather. Now, Wolfe attempts to shed light on his relative's serial-killing past and find closure for his father. In a six-part documentary, Wolfe partners with former FBI Cold Case Task Force officer John Cameron to prove Edwards is responsible for some of the most infamous murder cases of the 20th century, from the Black Dahlia to JonBenet Ramsey and the Zodiac killings.
