The Missing Review

The Missing’s 4th episode was a little slow in the beginning, but it picked up in the end. Once the pace was sped up, a great deal was revealed. We learned that Henry Reed and Adrian Stone were into something bad during their time in the army. Alice obviously knew Henry, yet she put flowers on his grave. This leads me to believe Henry was kind to her in some way. Kristian is also a mystery, but I believe he is likely innocent. The mystery deepens. A solid episode, which deserves an 8 out of 10. Keeley Hawes has been fantastic! Catch up with previous The Missing recaps right now.
