Dramatizing one of the most infamously notorious and shocking serial killer cases in the world, the hunt for Peter Sutcliffe, commonly dubbed the Yorkshire Ripper, between October 1975 and January 1981, South Yorkshire police undertook the biggest manhunt in British criminal history. The search for Sutcliffe lasted five years, involved over a thousand officers and changed the way the British police worked forever.

The rain-soaked streets of 1970s Yorkshire become a claustrophobic labyrinth as police struggle to catch a predator hiding in plain sight. This procedural captures the frantic, systemic failures that allowed a killer to slip through the fingers of a desperate manhunt.
