42 Days of Darkness

I wasn't expecting much when Netflix suggested this show but the camera work, the acting and the characters compelled me to keep watching. A married woman disappears, possibly kidnapped and while eyes start shifting toward the husband the family is split apart. This is by no means a unique or original story yet the writing, the characters and their acting keep you interested. The lawyer, Victor who some accuse of being obsessed with the case has his issues but he is very passionate and you come to love his dynamic with his team of investigators also who draw you in even in their small roles. From the eldest daughter to the other side characters there were strong performances and realistic occurrences, you can actually feel for both sides of the drama. I did have an issue with the ending but for a short series I would gladly recommend this show.
