The penultimate episode really had to set things up for the finale.

The focus is on both Maya and Detective Inspector Sami Kierce. How both their personal storylines merge.

The investigative journalist Corey Rudzinski while a suspect. Tells Sami of his belief that Burkett pharmaceuticals were falsifying drug trials of its various side effects. Using threats and murder to silence whistleblowers.

Sami's medication is from Burkett pharmaceuticals. He has been suffering from the various side effects of his medication.

As for Maya. She learns just what her husband Joe was like from childhood. Just what her mother in law's company was capable of.

Maya tells Shane Tessier the truth. What happened on that fateful day in the mission where the car was blown up and civilians died.

Shane is also puzzled how the same gun that killed Maya's sister could had killed her husband as well.

I did like how Sami's own trauma was explained. It had a kind of The Sixth Sense about it.

You would think the police would had realised before Shane as to the gun question. That Joe killed her sister. Maya used the same gun to later kill Joe.

As for the final episode. Will Sami get to Maya before she can gets to her mother in law's family?

This Episode begins with Christopher, he just told Maya that Joe has killed Theo and his brother Andrew. Kierce is chasing down Corey in the woods. Kierce arrested Corey for Tommy Dark his murder. Kierce interrogates Corey about Tommy Dark his murder. Corey tells Kierce that Lambur Pharma brings bad medicines on the market, Kierce is taking pills from this company. PJ admits to Kierce that he was near when Joe got killed. PJ fell off the roof, he is heavily wounded. Maya points a gun on Izabella and Luka. Izabella and Luka faked the nannycam footage, Joe is not alive. Maya tells Shane that she killed Joe. Nice Episode of Fool Me Once, what a shocking end of this great Episode. Maya killed Joe. But why she says it now?

The best episode in this Netflix limited series so far.

I binge watch shows while actively avoiding spoilers on the internet. It's just what I do because I hate having to wait!

This penultimate episode has everything you could possibly want. Tension, drama, and intrigue aplenty.

Although the revelation that Joe killed Claire, and that Maya then killed Joe was fairly obvious from the start (although I didn't know the reason why), it was still extremely dramatic.

A plethora of red herrings throughout the whole series definitely did not detract from the overall story, although like other excellent Harlan Coben shows on Netflix it could have been 6 episodes instead of 8.

A few Americanisms crept their way into the script, which I suppose was to appeal to the USA, but as the show is set in the UK, these should have been weeded out; after all, Google is available to all to look up things/words that appear foreign to the viewer.

The cast was excellent. The writing/direction; everything was great.

Emmett J Scanlan seems to look younger with every passing year. Michelle Keegan was amazing, and Dame Joanna Lumley provided the most awesome performance (throughout the whole series).
