Ina, Illinois was the kind of town where nothing ever happened… until an entire family was found murdered inside their mobile home. A young mother, her children, and a newborn baby were left arranged in bed, while the husband was discovered miles away in a field—executed and mutilated. Decades later, a notorious serial killer confessed, but his story kept changing, leaving one terrifying question behind: did the real killer ever get caught?
