Thoughtful and unassuming, Michael is a receptive ear for the tale Marie has to tell, even if both a tenacious prosecutor and the townsfolk resent him for it. Instead, Marie offers to tell her story to the sheriff’s son, Michael Jensen, an aspiring reporter. But Marie is unwilling to talk to investigators. They arrest her and charge her as an accomplice, certain that she couldn’t have carried out the murders on her own. When the Carlson family is murdered in the small Minnesota town of Black Deer Falls, local police find a teenage girl, Marie Catherine Hale, in the Carlson home, drenched in their blood. The police are baffled by the absence of blood at the scenes, as well as the lack of any signs of struggle. Their crimes are dubbed the Bloodless Murders, because the victims are all found exsanguinated. It’s 1958, and a serial killer is targeting the Midwest.
