Happy Face is inspired by the highly rated and critically acclaimed podcast from iHeartMedia and Melissa Jesperson-Moore, the book Shattered Silence written by Melissa with M. Bridget Cook, and Melissa's true-life story. At age 15, Melissa discovered her father, whom she loved dearly, was the prolific serial killer known as "Happy Face." As an adult, Melissa changed her name, guarded her secret, and cut off all ties to her father, who is currently serving life in prison.
Jumping off from Melissa's true-life story, in the series, her father contacts her to take credit for another victim, and Melissa gets pulled into an extraordinary investigation of her father and his crimes. The series follows her as she discovers the impact her father's crimes had on the families of his victims, which ultimately leads to a reckoning of her own identity.
