James Patterson's Murder Is Forever

—The pages of best-selling author James Patterson's books come alive in this true-crime series, a suspenseful foray into a world of twisted tales that once again proves truth is stranger than fiction.The hourlong episodes feature stylized re-enactments of unique murder mysteries that have enough twists and turns to fill a rollercoaster. But, says Investigation Discovery, what's most shocking is that the mind-bending crimes are 100 percent real. Each self-contained story has an episode title that corresponds with that of a Patterson true-crime paperback.
