Summary

The 1976 murders of Wade and Ellen Zick remain one of North Dakota’s most haunting true crime cases. Episode 5, Caramel Rolls, continues the story with chapters Caramel Rolls, Say Something, and It’s About Time. These moments reveal the community’s uneasy conversations, shifting loyalties, and the long silence that often surrounds small town murder. Zeeland blends investigative journalism and documentary style true crime storytelling to explore how rural crime devastated Zeeland and why this cold case still resonates nearly half a century later.
