The Well

S01E03 The Appeal

Wesley Shermantine and Loren Herzog may rank among America's most prolific killers, yet detectives find it hard to separate the men from the myth. Burdened by numerous missing persons cases, they try to decipher the pair's chaotic and unpredictable methods. Investigators turn their attention to another case possibly linked to the killers: Phillip Martin's disappearance. Martin vanished without a trace in 1993, and his car was later discovered burned to ash in an orchard. His daughter remains unable to move past his disappearance—or her anger at the original detectives who called her father a runaway. The sheriff's new team is drawn in by the apparent crime scene and a solid connection to Shermantine and Herzog. While probing Martin's case, a breakthrough in another case finally gives the Lady in the Fridge her name.
