In The Breakthrough, time drags. A case that should have been cracked quickly goes unsolved for 16 years. Then, as technology catches up to the evidence, time lurches forward, setting an awful, tense and thrilling deadline for all involved.
This opening is the stuff of nightmares, made all the more shocking by the fact that it is a true story. The lead detective, John Sundin, promises Adnan's parents that catching the culprit will be quick, but these promises prove difficult to keep.
Though the investigation is one of the best and most thorough his superior has ever seen, the years pass. Despite the scale of the search, there are no suspects.
It is clever and sensitive crime TV that demands you watch it carefully and treats its subject matter with the respect it deserves.
