When the most unlikely person surfaces to help the Green River Task Force in their drive to stop the man creating terror in the King County area of Washington State, investigators have more than curiosity plaguing them with this offer for aide. There could be something here to learn and with the studies of John Douglas with interviewing serial killers, they can't help but hope that Ted Bundy possesses the key in finding their guy. But you have to wonder what the true intentions are of Bundy and if he is playing a game that only results in him escaping Ol' Sparky. 

Gary's longest cluster killing spree is coming to a close, then suddenly the earth around King County pushes his dirty secrets to the surface and the Task Force adapts to a new way of investigating as body after body surfaces and some are of women never even reported missing.

This is part 1 of the 2 part season 3 finale of the True Crime Librarian, stick with me as we close out a case that took nearly 3 decades to solve, and the man whose hunch it was that Ridgway was their guy will get the best gift of all when his guy was the one they've been looking for all along...
