    A gripping, relatable thriller filled with emotion
    I thoroughly enjoyed this thriller as it had me in suspense and in an emotional rollercoaster all the way through. I particularly enjoyed yakira's personality and felt actress ruby barker played the character to a high standard giving such a realistic perception of the troubles and hardships that bereaved family members go through
