    What we’re left with is a dull series based on a bestselling novel that should have stayed on airport bookstore shelves instead of being adapted for the screen.

    Tt ultimately reads as a stale and redundant crime thriller that doesn’t thrill at all. In fact, at times I struggled to stay interested in one part of the show. .... You’re better off queueing up Defending Jacob, Bad Sisters, Presumed Innocent, or The Sinner instead.
