A crazy premise delivers a memorable dark thriller.
Written from the husband’s perspective (it seems like ages since I read a book with only one POV and I found it very refreshing) we get the view into the protagonist’s family life with his wife, estate agent Millicent and two teenage kids. From the outside, they look like a supernormal family, but he and Millicent are hiding some pretty dark stuff and when it starts to look like it may all come out the level of crazy to protect their way of life jumps to a whole other level. With a narrator who is by no means a boy scout, we get a front-row seat into how to justify the unjustifiable to yourself.

I loved the writing in this book and was fully engaged in what wasn’t a super fast-paced book. I think I’ve been reading way too many thrillers as once again I guessed the main twist way too early for my liking but it was still an enjoyable ride. I can see this being a great thriller movie.

Hopkins and Foster deliver a suspenseful thriller about a serial killer who is helping the FBI in tracking down the daughter of a US senator who has been kidnapped by and unteachable serial killer. The solo interactions between FOster and Hopkins get under your skin cause they are so dark at times. Hopkins character leaves such and impression it makes us want more and the movie does spawn 3 more movies about Hannibal Lechters life

This turned out to be one heck of a thriller. Netflix did it again. Very dark and intense tale that takes place in Alaska. Reading the description barely touches the surface of the movies depth. The story played out great and the acting was very good. The imagery and cinematography were very well done. It's a fairly violent movie so may not be for kids. I'd watch it first and decide for yourselves though, parents. REALLY worth a watch though.
