, is not your average procedural.

Hampton commands the screen as a woman grappling with the unresolved trauma of being abducted for a year and the realization that she, now having flipped the script, may share more similarities with her abductor than she may be willing to admit. Hampton’s Gabi is easily the most interesting character in every scene; her ability to hold a close-up and convey both the urgency with which her team needs to act and the empathy with which she needs to console a distressed family member or friend of the missing—sometimes toggling between both within the same scene—is particularly impressive.
The women here, over the five episodes screened for review, remain eminently more interesting than the men. While Sir is an aloof and enigmatic presence in Gabi’s past and continues to torment her in the present, the other guys who work with her feel less compelling by comparison, since they only seem to exist thus far to serve Gabi’s crusade.
