Synopsis

When they were twelve years old, Mark, Pru, Danny and Slade were out together in the park. Mark’s five-year-old brother, Jesse, was annoying them. They were mean – told him to get lost. Jesse ran away. He was gone. Never seen again. Twenty years later, Danny – now a detective – learns some shocking news. Jesse’s DNA has been found at a murder scene. He is alive and out there. Somewhere.

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

anne3624 I watched this series over two days, and I am balling! I am in tears. How many kid abductions end up finding a dead kid! this was a great story! I loved it. I rate it 12 stars! wow!
nvweldon I really didn't expect to write a review, but since there's no longer a message board, I had a couple of things that bugged me, which is why I gave it a grade of 8. First of all, since Pru had moved to America, where she got married, gave birth, and only recently returned to England, I'm having a hard time figuring out why her daughter has a British accent. Secondly, the actor playing her husband had the worst American accent I've ever heard, and since half the actors playing Americans on American TV are either English or Australian, I've heard many. Other than these minor problems, I thought it was a very good show.
imurf One of the best TV series we've seen for some time. Kind of Scandi noir only British. It's rare to find a TV series where you can't wait for the next episode. This is serious binge material. Contemporary and original.
bhenn-99747 I'm just starting episode 7, so I really can't fairly review the entire series, but ...I have the same criticism I often have for books - having watched three-fifths of the series so far, I don't think having it be ten episodes long serves this story well. Were this a book, I would wonder if the author was being paid by the page. For this video series, are Mr. Coben and his collaborators beyond paid by the minute. I find myself thinking "This is becoming rather tedious," a feeling I'd rather not have in watching a miniseries.This is the first review I've written, and I'll try to see if I can update my review when I've finished the last episode.
