Interesting to see Netflix adapting more novels. The cast is impressive with so many names. Hope the series does justice to the book and doesn't just become another crime thriller. The religious angle needs to be handled sensitively.

Amy Madigan in *Field of Dreams* was iconic! Good to see her getting recognition again with an Oscar nomination. The series plot is quite dark, but with Higher Ground Productions involved, it should have some depth. Will add to my watchlist.

As someone who enjoys crime dramas, this seems promising. The lead actor Sope Dirisu is talented. The setting in the Bible Belt adds a unique layer. Hope the storytelling is character-driven and not just about the shocks.

Wow, what a cast list! Giancarlo Esposito is always brilliant. The subject matter is heavy but important. Shows like these can start conversations about faith, justice, and community. Hope it gets a good release date in India.
