In this week’s episode, Jessica brings us the harrowing true crime story chronicled in Michael Grimm's book "Tell Edith Goodbye." Set against the backdrop of the Great Depression in 1935, in the picturesque yet unforgiving Skagit Valley of the Cascade Mountain Range, a destitute family struggling to survive meets a mysterious drifter known only as "the Finn." This stranger's arrival sets in motion a chain of events that will forever alter the lives of those involved. A dangerous infatuation developed between the youngest daughter, Edith, and the Finn. He stopped at nothing to make her his. This once large, loving family was torn apart at the seams. All because they let the wrong person in.
