Seduciendo a un asesino

Considering it's based on a true story I think the writers did a good job of squeezing as much drama as possible from the events.

But it's not perfect. There are some very slow moments and overall it might have fitted one less episode better.

Having said that, it is quite compelling and most of the lead actors were excellent.

An absorbing examination of the investigation into a disturbing true life murder and the subsequent police undercover operation to try and entrap the man they believe is responsible.

The decision to make the drama female centric and tell it through the eyes of the undercover cop Sadie Byrne worked really well. Casting was great, Niamh Alghar was standout as the lead and Eddie Marsan was great as ever.

Hard to fault the production in any department, direction and photography were stylish, the score by Marc Calham was beautiful and the story was perfectly paced.

Hats off to all involved, esp. The writer Emilia di Giroloma for a fab script.

Recently, I came across an intriguing mini-series titled "Deceit," comprising four riveting episodes. The narrative unfolds around a dedicated policewoman tasked with infiltrating criminal organizations. As she becomes entangled in the complex case of a murderer linked to a suspect, the storyline takes unexpected turns, introducing a myriad of challenges.

What sets this series apart is its clever incorporation of a police psychologist, adding a unique dimension to the investigative process. "Deceit" is a 2021 American production that skillfully explores the intricacies of crime and the efforts to unravel deception.

The series not only delves into the criminal underworld but also presents a satirical take on the involvement of a psychological perspective in police work. Its 2021 release reflects a contemporary approach to storytelling, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

I can't believe the low rating this has received.

Did all contributors watch the whole series or just rate after a few minutes of the first episode?

This is a great watch especially for a fact-based story.

Gripping, intriguing, compelling and sultry.

If fits in well with general detective dramas that lead you one way then somewhere else entirely in the final scenes.

I just had to keep watching like a good book you can't put down.

It's just the opening scenes of s1e1 that didn't really seem to be needed.

You know what it's like - just one more episode then I'm going to bed then before you know it you've done the whole thing and it's 2:00am on a work night! I have no idea who has rated this low but they were not watching the same thing as me! I was gripped and can't quite believe that the police, those that are here to protect us, could behave so despicably, so devious and blinkered. No spoilers but just wait until the last two episodes! Absolutely amazing!!!
