About
You’ll likely enjoy Home Before Dark if you like small-town mystery thrillers with a determined young sleuth and a fast hook from the start; Not for you if you want a more believable child lead or a tightly paced story, and you may prefer something like Magpie Murders or The Brokenwood Mysteries instead.
Pros: Hooked from episode one; Strong young lead; Interesting mystery | Cons: Plot gets muddled; Some find it unwatchable; Length feels too long
