As this eight part French drama opens a young woman is seen running down a road. She is in an 'accident' and in hospital seems to have no memory of who she is or what happened. Flashing back eleven years we see a girl, Marina, shortly before she goes missing. Her mother is convinced that the young woman is in fact her daughter. Early tests suggest this is the case but her father is less certain. As things progress some questions are answered relatively early but more arise and the question of who did what to young Marina all those years ago remains till near the end.
I thought this was a solid series. The central mystery is intriguing and provides some interesting twists and turns before the conclusion. The Dunkirk location, and many night/twilight scenes help create a brooding atmosphere. The characters are good; as well as the central family, I particularly liked the leading police investigator, known as 'The Shark'... who is a heavily pregnant woman. The cast do a fine job bringing their characters to life. Overall an impressive little series that I'd recommend to fans of Euro-drama.
