After escaping a childhood kidnapping in 1990s South Africa, a woman grows up to become a detective and profiler. While raising her child and living with lasting trauma, she throws herself into a string of brutal cases, navigating local tensions, corruption, and a past threat that refuses to stay buried.

My take

If you like dark, disturbing crime mysteries with a slow-burn pace and a troubled lead, this could work for you; Not for you if you want tidy plotting or lighter thrills like Slasher.
