Rebecca S. @Becca01 Oct 28 This documentary truly left me speechless. It perfectly captures how a single whim can destroy everything and how a carefully planned lie can spiral completely out of control. Out of all the mystery and true crime documentaries I’ve seen — including those about serial killers — this one stands out the most. It’s shocking, unpredictable, and filled with moments that make you question how far people are willing to go to protect a secret. By the end, I was left with my mouth wide open and more questions than answers.

See more Stewart F Dec 31 Powerful and heart wrenching story with first hand footage and a story that makes you want to go back and watch again to see the telltale signs. Sad, but gripping. See more Rizwan A 11/05/2024 This documentary is extremely entertaining whilst also being shocking, mysterious and suspenseful. It shows a story of a family who seem quite happy on social media but as the detectives go through the hidden facts and details the true horrific tale is unfolded. As you see the confessions, in tension filled rooms, it truly puts the mind of a murderer into perspective. The way they start with made up stories and lies, then end with a true confession as they crumble under the intense amount of pressure, is really interesting.

The narration is 100 percent told through police documentation and evidence consisting of letters, texts, and social media posts. It presents a portrait of a deteriorating marriage followed by a disappearance followed by a confession. Getting to know these people through their texts and videos is eerie and riveting. This is a fascinating film. See more Read all reviews
