Texas Killing Fields

In the haunting landscape of East Texas, where sprawling fields meet dense thickets, lies a chilling expanse known as the Texas Killing Fields. This gritty eight-part series follows the harrowing journey of two determined detectives, Luna Beck and Sam Garret, as they navigate the murky waters of crime, corruption, and an unresolved past.

Set in the late 1980s, the story begins when the bodies of young women begin to surface in the desolate fields, sending shockwaves through the tight-knit community of League City. Luna, a tough-as-nails investigator wrestling with her own demons, is newly paired with the dedicated but emotionally guarded Sam.

The series deftly weaves together flashbacks that reveal the grim history of the Killing Fields and its impact on those who call Texas home, serving both as a backdrop and a character in its own right.

As she seeks justice for the families of the victims, she grapples with her own unresolved grief, and must confront the darkness within herself. Meanwhile, Sam’s dutiful exterior masks a childhood marred by violence and loss, forcing him to confront his own buried memories as they uncover the layers of the case.
