Marin County, 1979: Young girls are turning up dead on the mountain behind Rachel’s house, and her father—the town’s charismatic, flawed detective—is on the case.
As the Sunset Strangler eludes capture and her father begins to spiral, eleven-year-old Rachel takes matters into her own hands. Her bold efforts to catch the killer will shatter her family and reshape her future.
Thirty years later, haunted by the past and convinced the wrong man was arrested, Rachel sets out to uncover the truth and restore her father’s legacy.
Loosely inspired by the Trailside Killer case, After Her is a haunting blend of thriller and coming-of-age tale—a deeply human story of family, obsession, and the dangerous power of love and memory.
