About
You’ll likely be into this if you want a grim, unsettling true-crime doc about betrayal and greed in a trusted industry, similar to McMillions or Trial 4; Not for you if you avoid gruesome, upsetting subject matter.
Pros: gripping true-crime hook; unsettling real-life details; strong first episode | Cons: deeply disturbing content; midsection pacing dips; some emotions underexplored
