Fatal Encounters

Investigation Discovery's new series Fatal Encounters recounts the ill-fated relationship between killer and victim as their paths intertwine. Chance meetings, everyday decisions, and random acts of violence send ordinary people down a deadly collision course toward their own mortality. Each episode begins with the introduction of the victim and the killer as they go about their normal business, unaware of what's about to transpire. While an on-screen clock counts down the victim's final hours, days, or even years, viewers track the decisions and actions that bring the victim closer to their killer's fatal trap, not knowing until the last moment which person will fall prey and who will have blood on their hands... In the premiere episode, two young women are drawn together, both about to become mothers. But one of these women aren't who they say they are and in less than 24 hours tragedy will strike but who will make it to the other side? (official distributor synopsis)
