Overview
- Netflix released all six episodes on January 8, delivering a compact limited series designed for quick viewing.
- The show adapts Alice Feeney’s novel, developed for television by William Oldroyd with Dee Johnson, and relocates the story to Georgia.
- Tessa Thompson plays former TV anchor Anna Andrews opposite Jon Bernthal’s Detective Jack Harper, estranged spouses who collide on the same murder case in Dahlonega.
- Critics describe the series as bingeable and often “unhinged,” praising momentum but noting implausible late twists, uneven characterization, and a strained tone.
- Thompson and Bernthal draw consistent praise for elevating the material, with notable turns from Sunita Mani, Pablo Schreiber, Rebecca Rittenhouse, Marin Ireland, and Poppy Liu; some outlets report an early 88% Rotten Tomatoes score, characterized as a preliminary snapshot.
