In series one, Elizabeth Moss plays a detective investigating the assault and disappearance of a 12 year old girl. The case triggers her own last trauma. This can make the show a difficult dark watch. The complex themes take the show beyond the who dunnit genre. Moss is superb. There were some periods I started to get bored with the case, but overall I wanted to watch.
It takes a few episodes to get into the firsts series. The pace can feel slow but also mesmerising at times.
Series Two is a new case but similar themes. Nicole Kidman is the mother of a troubled daughter. The family dynamics are the highlight of this series.
I would recommend with trigger warnings. I might watch again one day, but not sure. There are enough slow periods and enough darkness to maybe put me off a rewatch.
