Seasons & Episode
Following the brutal and unsolved murder of his mother Barbara back in 2010, Madison Hamburg returns to his hometown of Madison, Connecticut to piece together her life story. Through interviews with those who knew Barbara best, Madison dives into his parents' divorce and the unsettling details of his mother's life that were kept under wraps.
Madison investigates the parts of his family that have been kept in the shadows, and explores the fallout of his mother's and aunts’ involvement in the “Gifting Tables”—a multi-level marketing scheme that aimed to uplift women but, as it grew exponentially, evolved into something more insidious.
With the 10-year anniversary of his mother’s death approaching, Madison leaves no stone unturned in his quest for the truth – despite concerns that his documentary may be doing more harm than good. As Madison presses on, there are surprising roadblocks to his investigation.
