He attacked her before evading capture
Scenario
Delia Balmer, a nurse at the agency, met with Sweeney, who confessed to killing his ex-girlfriend. Balmer rebuilt his life to confront Sweeney seven years later after he was arrested for another murder.
Based on a true crime story
The bodies were dumped in canals in Rotterdam (not Amsterdam) and London. This short series left me speechless, simply amazed!
Once you start watching, you can’t stop!
Not only because of the great actors and performance, but because the story is well told, realistic, very powerful and at times uncomfortable and frustrating. The first two episodes are the most intense and brutal.
Actress Anna Maxwell as Delia is simply amazing!
It works with great power, strength and realism, I can’t imagine anything better, it’s just perfect! The series reflects on the protection systems put in place around victims of abuse and holds accountable those who must contribute to keeping them safe.
Don’t miss this!
The plot is very well structured, marking each episode as a separate phase in the development of events, and they focus very deeply on personal obsessions. This is an extremely solid British true crime production that gets under your skin thanks to the excellent performances.
