The search for a missing sex worker in 2010 led to a grizzly discovery: the bodies of several women were unearthed in the dunes along New York’s Gilgo Beach. It led investigators to the conclusion that a serial killer was targeting women on Long Island. The high profile case remained cold for years, with books, podcasts, and movies raising awareness - all while investigators were dogged by dissention and corruption. But new technology and a fresh set of eyes spotted a likely suspect, someone identified by witnesses years earlier.

“Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer” recounts the long hunt for the culprit and a look at the man police say evaded detection for more than a decade. Filmmaker Liz Garbus, who directed the 2020 motion picture “Lost Girls,” returns to the topic just as Rex Heuermann prepares for trial, accused of the Gilgo Beach murders.

OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "GONE GIRLS" BEGIN IN THE FINAL ELEVEN MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
