15 years ago, the 300+ residents of Limetown (a community of research scientists and their families) disappeared without trace.
Jessica Biehl is a radio journalist with links to the case who is obsessed with solving the mystery.
I won’t add more at the moment, but I’m three episodes in and enjoying the weirdness of it.
Anyone else watching?

I've watched the first 4 episodes now. It is very weird! - with touches of horror.

Well. That was very bleak.

My further thoughts: it was an interesting premise and the tension/suspense were good. I really wanted to know what happened at Limetown.
But the whole plot “soufflé” relied on Lea existing in a bubble. None of her investigations provoked any effective reactions, except by the villains - and even they (an organisation with seemingly limitless resources) were apparently only able to follow after her and kill witnesses she’d already interviewed. They talked about the FBI and Interpol, but we only saw them in the most peripheral way - in real life, Lea would have been shut down early on, and at least arrested as a witness. It was just too far removed from reality.

I'm 6 episodes in, 4 to go, and I'm still no nearer understanding why there was a mass panic that we see glimpses of, or why most people who talk to Lia have to wind up dead shortly afterwards. I'll keep watching to see if there are explanations, and if this highly unlikely scenario has some warning for us about the dangers of inter-mind communication. It's quite an unusual production I think.

Anymore to come?
