Gone For Good

Gone For Good | Official Trailer | Netflix

Another Harlan Coben novel comes to the small screen. It's pretty good for what it is, which is a far-fetched mystery. We watched three of the five episodes to night, and we've got two dead girlfriends, except the second dead body wasn't the second girlfriend. There's the presumed dead brother, but he's been caught on camera with second dead woman's daughter, so maybe he ain't really dead. Then there is the second dead woman's former pimp, now paralyzed and being kept alive in another badly disfigured woman's basement.

Basically, we've got two guys, not police, who are looking for the disappeared girlfriend. Some of their actions are unlikely, but most of them are just what you might expect people would do when they are looking for a missing person, and this makes it a pretty good show.

Netflix, 5 episodes, 45 minutes each, in French with English subtitles.
