The series follows the story of a female journalist named Lia Haddock. Lea is a journalist at the American Public Radio (APR) where she decided to fight a reality with a view to getting a new journalist bug in her life. Lea is trying to reveal the mystery behind the disappearance of more than 300 people. Lien is trying to find real clues behind the disappearance of people at the neuroscience research facility in Tennessee.
The contributions of a commanding lead like Jessica Biel and outstanding support from Stanley Tucci help this version of Limetown feel as engrossing and necessary as the first.
Though it's a more straightforward adaptation of its podcast source material than, say, Amazon's "Homecoming," it always feels slightly off-kilter in a way that suits its thriller roots.
The production crew takes all of the mental pictures painted by the dialogue and transforms them into visual poetry that creates an atmosphere you can feel for hours afterward.
It's also a slow, dark crime story that focuses only on the crime itself, to the detriment of getting to know its characters better, or any possible hint of lightness that would make us want to stay in Limetown long enough to get answers.
