ID Presents New Series HEART OF DARKNESS  Image

What if your closest loved ones were monsters in disguise? What if everything you thought you knew about love was wrong? Investigation Discovery (ID), America's leading destination for true-crime programming, announced today the premiere of the six-part series HEART OF DARKNESS, a series about love, hate, and how TRUST can shatter in an instant. Episodes detail casualties of love, including former partners, jealous friends, scorned sons and daughters, and devoted family members. Twisting through hidden affairs, love triangles and family secrets, HEART OF DARKNESS shows the transfixing power of emotion and how it can beckon the most reasonable people into criminal madness. HEART OF DARKNESS premieres on Saturday, February 9th at 9/8PM CT only on Investigation Discovery.

HEART OF DARKNESS proves that love is never predictable, and sometimes the most dangerous people are the ones you least expect.
