Blood Relatives: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

From the outside, families seem like harmonious units in loving homes. But you don't necessarily know what secrets families are hiding from the outside world. This series, narrated by actress Brenda Strong, explores families hiding the most extreme of family secrets: murder.

Each episode of Blood Relatives explores a death in a family, unraveling the motives of the family members, all of whom are potential suspects -- and potential victims.
