Does it take a killer to catch a killer?
Men and women of law enforcement work hard to solve every murder but some cases remain stubbornly open; they run cold. Dark Minds reignites interest in these cases through two obsessive investigators; true crime author, M. William Phelps, and criminal profiler, John Kelly. They bring fresh eyes and a different perspective to the crimes, using the combined instincts of an investigative journalist, a psychological profiler and an anonymous serial killer serving multiple life-sentences. Together they review known evidence of each case and speculate who the killer might be. By talking to police, survivors, family members and experts, Phelps and Kelly build a profile of the murderer.
