Could have been really good

I've never written an IMDB review before but this series I had high hopes for but unfortunately the roles of the CID female and male officers are totally pathetic. Oh and the psychologist.

For a start this is supposed to be present day and the two CID officers and psychologist who are left to 'handle' the investigation don't seem to have any idea of how to treat a victim or at least one of this sort. You would've thought on such a high profile case and in such extreme circumstances the Police would have specialists in this field to help the victim come to terms with being free. (You'd hope they would!)

The CID officers performances because of the lack of knowledge is such so it's painful to watch especially the female officer perform her script. I just keep saying to myself (in my head) "REALLY, are they really getting you to say such things???", as she is basically accusing Ivy of being an accomplice of some sort. I mean hello 'Stockholm syndrome' !??!?! That was discovered in 1972. Ivy was captured when she was 13 a MINOR. Her role has totally ruined the watchablity of series, I'm only continuing to watch to find because I hope there will be a good ending. It's tough though!

score 5/10
