Slasher: Ripper

The city's elite are thrown into panic when a member of the upper crust is murdered by a killer dubbed "the Widow." Detective Rijkers is put on the case. The city's most powerful man, Basil Garvey, is a target and works to control the investigation.

The Widow strikes again, and Kenneth Rijkers begins connecting the killings to a 12-year-old mystery, while Basil Garvey, a business oligarch, pulls a number of strings to control the investigation.

A key piece of evidence emerges as the list of victims begin to grow, and those seemingly involved with the death of Margaret Mehar begin to panic as they're pursued by both Rijkers and the Widow.

Kenneth moves on pursuing his lead suspect - apprehending him before potential harm is brought to Regina. However, the Widow isn't the only one up to cruel mischief, with the Botticelli sisters taking sinister measures to project their fortunes.

Love is in the air with Basil and Verdi, but heartbreak follows soon behind with former lovers Salome and Terrence at each other's throats. Under pressure from the entire city, Basil works with Regina to narrow down the Widow's identity.

The pressure gets to Israel, who admits to her and seven other involvements in Margaret's death. Kenneth secures the suspects, freeing only Israel to operate on a friend of Regina's - inadvertently putting her into the Widow's clutches.

With Kenneth's list of suspects either jailed or buried, he sets his sights on the sly magician Georges, who is slowly losing his grip on reality. A final bloody performance of Georges exposes the Widow's hand.

With the Widow's final victim nearly in her clutches, Kenneth's time is running out. However, upon revealing the killer's identity he grapples with how to bring justice to the victims.
