A promising start
lofcfan20 June 2023
A really promising start to a creepy and very different style of crime drama.

The acting is strong and the twist at the end of the first episode (whilst somewhat telegraphed) is certainly a good one.

Knowing that the series is based on a real life cult who snatched children makes this an even more affecting drama. I will certainly be having a search for some articles about the real life cult.

The identikit blond bob haircuts and tracksuits help to make the whole piece more sinister and the music used helps to build the tension without being overbearing.

Definitely worth a watch if you want something a bit different from your usual police dramas.

New and creative storyline
tsr-8455320 July 2023
I love the intensity of the storyline! Unlike any other series I've watched! Just when you think it may have gotten too confusing, each episode ends with absolute understanding of what you just saw, leaving you in a state of disbelief! The cast is FANTASTIC!!! Each role, I personally feel, have brought their characters to life! Embodying the depths of depravity, brainwashing, and for some, the grief of the loss of their lives spent, as well as the children sacrificed for the greater good... absolutely edge of my seat each week, and now utterly disappointed that it's ended after episode 8! I need to see more!!! Please!!!!!
