    A journeyman show, it's very much paint-by-numbers stuff, with nothing you haven't already seen in half-a-dozen similar narratives, as writers Normand Daneau and Geneviève Simard take no real risks. Having said that, however, it's a well made piece of television. Confidently directed by Peter Stebbings, the material may offer nothing revelatory, but what it does offer is enjoyable enough for its own sake. An excellent Peter Coyote dominates the narrative as Henry Sullivan, a retired judge with a strained relationship (to say the least) with his son, Luke (Aden Young). When his young grandson, Anthony, disappears, and the veneer of civility erodes, the fissures running through the family dynamic begin to erupt, with blame and recrimination becoming the central tenets of familial interaction. You may guess half-way through who the kidnapper is, and yes, they're one of those Hollywood type kidnappers who leave cryptic clues everywhere, but this remains a well made, if unadventurous, show.7/10

    I had already watched the French series and enjoyed it, so was looking forward to watching this. I'm sure I would have liked it, but I had to turn it off after about 20 minutes, the back ground music was way too loud so much so that sometimes it was difficult to hear what the characters were saying. I get that sometimes background music is necessary to build tension etc but not to that extent.

    This mini series would be a nice adventure game. Clearly the writers are gamers, rç.I'm surprised they delivered a good and clever drama without the usual 1h+ tiring episodes.Brilliant acting.

    I watched this, at the beginning, only for Aden Turner as I was a fan of his when he was in Rectify. After the first episode I was hooked. Being a fan of mystery thrillers, this was right up my alley. So many twists and turns. Soon I realized that this was a Canadian production based on the original French show. Well done! I now only hope I can purchase this on DVD so I can watch it again. I am sure I missed some subtle things. Thanks all for this series!
