The movie follows Record-American newspaper reporter Loretta McLaughlin (Keira Knightley), who is the first reporter to link the Boston Strangler killings. With her colleague and confidante Jean Cole (Carrie Coon), Loretta tries to continue her research as the mysterious killer claims more and more victims, but they are thwarted by the pervasive misogyny of the time. Nonetheless, McLaughlin and Cole heroically continue to investigate the case at great personal peril, risking their own lives in the process.
