Joe Kenda, known for his straightforward true crime storytelling, is back with another tough case on Investigation Discovery’s “Homicide Hunter: American Detective.” This Tuesday’s episode, “Valentine’s Day Murder,” transports us to New Jersey’s Little India, where what initially looks like a tragic house fire soon reveals itself as a homicide investigation.
When a mother of two is discovered deceased within the fire-damaged home, the immediate thought is that the blaze claimed her life. But a closer inspection tells a different, more disturbing story. The autopsy confirms she was strangled before the fire was set, completely changing Lt. Mike Daniewicz’s investigation from a potential accident to a hunt for a killer.
Now, Daniewicz has to work his way through the busy streets of Little India, trying to piece together the victim’s life to figure out who could commit such a cruel act. It’s a challenging puzzle against the clock, one that will likely keep you guessing right up until Kenda provides his distinct, matter-of-fact breakdown of how justice was found.
