This was a truly good Lifetime movie. The cast was perfect and they had great chemistry in telling the story. However the story was left with too many questions and didn't answer the overall question or fill in the blanks and gaps. It was like false advertising. There is too much speculation for the viewer to fill in which makes me think either the book was written this way or the person who wrote the screenplay cut corners. When I looked at the synopsis of the book, it was her grandmother who passed away so I am wondering if her father actually died in the book as he did in the movie which indicated he was a seawalker which would make Maranda half seawalker. Unless the author writes another book to fill in the blanks and continue the story, I could see this as a short limited series on the CW or Freeform channel unless Lifetime decided to create another movie based off a new screenplay to explain and continue the story. Is Maranda half seawalker, did her g=father die because he was no longer swimming, why did her Mom try to kill her when she was an infant, how does the town explain the disappearance of several people, do they ever return, can Maranda be the key to save them and etc. Too many questions left to ponder...
