This is truly a wonderful story, told with care and intelligence. It is the story of another kind of victim of a serial killer - his own child - and how the legacy of that relationship impacts her life. Melissa is honest and relatable, and other contributors, such as Don, add to the fullness of the picture. Set to great music and excellently hosted, it’s a must-listen.

Melissa, you’re not your father. Projection is just a very bad drug. I wish you all the best in this life navigation. Trauma survivors are special. 🫶🏻💙🫶🏻
