Co-Dependency, Dangerous Delusions and Bad Therapy: Dr. Felix and Susan Polk

A couple meets decidedly uncute when the man is the teenage girl's therapist. Decades later, the professional couple seem to have everything going for them - marriage, kids and a beautiful home. But behind closed doors, decades of co-dependency, dangerous delusions and abuse of power leads to a devastating murder.
