Part 1: Katherine Herbers and Howard Fisher

Fort Wayne, Indiana. May 6, 1925

A young couple is out for a drive one lovely spring night. The abrupt end to their evening is only the beginning of the terror that will snake across the Midwest in the Jazz Age, only to disappear and return with starting violence in the big city at the start of the Great Depression. 

This is the first episode of our journey down Lovers' Lanes across the United States, lonely roads, private places touched by senseless brutality.
