First things first. The death that kicked off the miniseries is revealed in a final twist to have been caused by 13-year-old Ryan Ross. After discovering his father John was having an incestuous affair with Erin (the pair are cousins once removed), beginning at their family reunion in Lake Harmony, Ryan stole elderly resident Mr. Carroll's old hand...
John, Ryan's dad and Lori's husband, confesses to Erin's murder, claiming Erin called him away from Frank's (Mare's ex-husband) engagement party, angry, asking him to pay for their baby DJ's ear surgery. John says she blamed him for ruining her life and threatened to shoot herself. He claims he accidentally shot her in the hand while wrestling the ...
Surprisingly, about five minutes in, the mystery appears to be solved, when Mare discovers John holding a gun to his brother Billy's head. But something isn't quite right. In the previous episode, analysis of the found bullet reveals it came from an old handgun from the 1980s of the type carried by the police, including Mare's late father. Mare rec...

He later sneaks a peek at the phone and discovers more messages from Erin asking John to meet her at Brandywine Park. This was around 10:45 p.m. When he returned home, Ryan snuck out and cycled to Mr. Carroll's house to pick up his gun, whi...
The clue to Ryan's involvement was dropped in episode 5, when Lori overheard John telling Ryan to keep quiet about a secret. Ryan later violently defends his sister at school, showing how far he'll go to protect his family. Lori initially believes the secret is John has been cheating on her again with a woman named Sandra Elliott, not Erin.
The Catholic deacon, who'd been reassigned to Easttown after sexual misconduct allegations at his previous parish, drew plenty of attention to himself by not cooperating with the police. Erin's phone records reveal she'd spoken to him after her fight with Brianna, Dylan's girlfriend. Deacon Mark claims to have given Erin counseling, but is cagey th...
