Alain E @AlainE Feb 6 Very disjointed editing in the first few minutes. A female photo reporter, who we have to assume is street savvy, takes on an assignment to photograph the first free elections in South Africa her young daughter with her. They get separated and the mother searches only in one direction. Cut. A young girl (possibly the original child, now older) walks in a field and witnesses some violence on a child. She retreats. Cut. A new aupair gets hired in a chaotic household. I think it’s the reporter’s. Cut. A new male policeman gets transferred to a new precinct. He instantly insults an experienced female officer there. None of these episodes appear promising for this series. I left. See more Chris B @RT29408941 02/28/2025 Season 1 is really really good. The casting and acting is unbelievable, I also enjoyed the story and found it very gripping. The filming locations too are very strong and it certainly has a feel to it. I think the story is more feasible than some people would like to perhaps believe! See more Judy S @RT83960989 07/11/2024 I almost stopped watching. But I gave it more time and so glad I did. I totally got invested in these characters. I don’t like how she interacts with her captor. Besides that. It’s pretty good. See more Nightwing R @RT96676116 06/13/2023 It started out interestingly enough, but followed bunny trails, lingered on personal drama - flip switch - professional profiler - flip switch - tortured individual - oops, now back in time - now a crime - now a political theater - ugh. Too much back and forth, not enough story telling. Too much damaged cop, not enough plot. A 2-hour movie told in 8 hours. See more Tom S @Acewrite13 01/28/2023 This grim show has its charms, but it is ultimately too convoluted and nonsensical. Iain Glen's character was so utterly rancid there was no excuse for not having someone blow his head off at the end. No way should he have come out of this story alive. See more Leilani Y @HatrickV 09/30/2022 I could not turn awayband the Chief Msomi , the bridadier, the castvreally were brilliant and charismatic. I was afraid eventually that i was being charmed like the serial killers victims but in the finish i survived and was greater in unders!tanding of pedophile victims psychology . Far better than Agatha Christie , i am glad the cane killer was caught finally . Rey ka. was amazing See more Read all reviews
