About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like sprawling, question-heavy true-crime series such as Wild Wild Country or Fear City: New York vs the Mafia; Not for you if you need clear answers, a tight timeline, and a decisive conclusion.
Pros: gripping mystery build-up; intriguing interviews; deepening rabbit hole | Cons: confusing and sprawling; slow pacing; wrap-up feels unsatisfying
