There's a lot to like.

This show is not perfect.

The pacing of the story is a bit off, and as other reviewers have said the constant time jumps are annoying and could have been handled more creatively without losing the plot.

It is a slow burn, purposely so, not just to build tension but to have the viewer invest in the characters. This pays off eventually.

One big problem is the script. It's not the best. Pace is erratic and content variable. I get the feeling this was a very hard novel to bring to the screen but so feel it could have been done better.

The good things, and there are plenty.

Great acting, especially from the three siblings and 'Talcott' in particular. Forrest Whittaker is a class act (I'll forgive him Battlefield Earth).

Very good delivery of a variable script, dialogue is clear and has emotion.

Production values are evident in every scene.

I do think this series is better than the sum of its parts and encourage potential viewers top give it a chance. Having said that, I also think it's a binge watch rather than an episode every night.
