"Grief and guilt unravel under public scrutiny"
When a couple travels to Australia with their infant son, the baby vanishes without a trace, and the ensuing search spirals into a media storm of suspicion and grief. Told through a fractured, non-linear timeline, the four-part miniseries slowly peels back what really happened. It's a slow-burn, emotionally bruising watch anchored by a lead performance that carries the tension between public sympathy and private guilt. Don't expect twisty thrills; it's more interested in dread, blame, and the unraveling of a marriage under scrutiny than in mystery-box payoffs.
