Plot

In the shadows of Western Washington, a sinister predator lurks, marking the beginning of a chilling saga that spans nearly two decades. Detective Dave Reichert of the King County Sheriff's Department finds himself ensnared in the relentless pursuit of a brutal serial killer, cruelly dubbed the Green River Killer due to the grim discovery location of his early victims. The narrative intertwines with the tale of two adventure-seeking girls from a local trailer park, their lives unknowingly spiralling towards a dangerous intersection with the area's most ruthless murderer. Amidst the dark underbelly of the city, all the victims share an unfortunate commonality - they are women entangled in the perilous world of prostitution. As the case deepens, Reichert and his team utilize every resource at their disposal. From the calculated insight of an FBI profiler to the chillingly intimate knowledge offered by death row inmate and infamous serial killer, Ted Bundy, they inch closer to the monster hiding in plain sight. A multitude of men fall under suspicion, with Reichert at one point convinced he has unmasked the killer. However, it's only with the advent of DNA matching, a groundbreaking revelation of the time, that the pieces of this haunting puzzle begin to fit. As the investigation reaches its climax, the Green River Killer's shocking admission sends waves of horror across the nation - a gruesome tally of 71 slain women. Based on Sheriff David Reichert's riveting book, "Chasing the Devil: My Twenty-Year Quest to Capture the Green River Killer," this film is a harrowing exploration of a relentless quest for justice, the darkness that can hide in humanity, and the courage required to shine a light upon it.
