Episode 5: The Widower
Another three weeks pass with no new Lovers' Lane murders. A couple in Nebraska, brought together by the eerily similar tragedies that have shaped their lives, takes an automobile ride one summer Sunday night and never returns.
The strange clues found at the murder scene raise more questions than they answer. And the town's recent rash of robberies might mean that the killer has been lurking for a while.

Part 1: Katherine Herbers and Howard Fisher
Fort Wayne, Indiana. May 6, 1925
