In the quiet hills of Springville, California, a cold-blooded murder shattered the illusion of a perfect world. The lives of a wealthy rancher, a beautiful woman, and a charming stranger with a dark past collided, resulting in a twisted series of disquieting incidents. This is more than a true crime story. It’s a story of manipulation, survival, and the power of persuasion.
Join us today for Twisted Affection. We’re delving into the chilling case of Hope Masters and G. Daniel Walker—a man who posed as a charismatic friend but was a psychopathic sexual predator, a fugitive, and a remorseless killer. We’re peeling back the layers of deception, exploring the psychology of criminal and victim, and asking ourselves: how much can one person control the actions and feelings of another?
