About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a twisty, character-driven crime mystery with a darker, unsettling tone, similar to The Fall or Defending Jacob; Not for you if you dislike slow builds or find disturbed themes too heavy.

Pros: gripping mystery hooks; strong performances; bingeable cliffhangers | Cons: slow burn pacing; uneven later seasons; occasional plot holes
