Who doesn’t enjoy a crime drama, let’s face it? And if, like us, you’re looking for a book that will captivate you, then you’re in luck because the BBC is releasing a brand new psychological thriller that’s sure to keep you guessing. It’s called The One That Got Away
The One That Got Away
Honestly, who doesn’t like a good criminal drama? You’re in luck if, like us, you’re searching for a book that will keep you wondering since the BBC is releasing a new psychological thriller. The people of a charming Welsh seaside hamlet are hiding a sinister past secret in the new mystery series The One That Got Away. The town’s murder of a nurse reopens old tensions in the community, casting doubt on a prior conviction and making residents fear if a copycat killer is out there.
If all of that wasn’t thrilling enough, the BBC is promising an “electrifying love tale” as the narrative centers on DI Ffion Lloyd (Elen Rhys), who teams up with her ex-lover, DS Rick Walters (Richard Harrington), in an effort to uncover the truth. Juicy!
Crime fiction enthusiast Catherine Tregenna, who has written for Law & Order UK, Lewis, and DCI Banks, is the author of the play. The show is a “knotty, twisty-turny, edge-of-your-seat thriller,” according to Nick Andrews, Head of Commissioning for BBC Cymru Wales. He also says viewers will be “gripped and quivering all at once — nail-biting stuff.” We are eager.
Is the program The One That Got Away good?
The BBC also characterizes the episode as a “forensic exploration of a town, a killer, and a relationship, past and present,” which is “deliciously dark and atmospheric” and “guaranteed to keep BBC viewers hooked until the very end,” drawing on the murderer (pun intended) narrative.
We may be confident that the new drama has already been established on a strong basis for success because it is really an English-language adaptation of a well-liked Welsh thriller from the previous year. And this is undoubtedly one for you if you enjoyed Eve Myles’s character on Keeping Faith.
