Mystery and crime shows must be the most varied genre because new twists are constantly being added to the criminal realm. One day the FBI is the target, the next a self-made hero, and the last a female vigilante. One of the unexpected turns that a show like Killing Eve has introduced is a detective falling in love with the criminal they are supposed to be on the lookout for.
Paul Attanasio, the creator of Homicide, will pen The Bend, a new FX crime drama. The following television series, based on Gerald Seymour’s book Killing Grounds, will follow the adventures of a nanny hired to discover his employers’ secrets.
The Bends Season 1 Plot
The story was based on the best-selling book Killing Ground by Gerald Seymour. It is yet unclear whether the story of the series will be heavily or simply minimally changed from the novel in order to create an unique narrative. The nanny who worked for an American family is the main subject. To outsiders, the family appears to be a successful one in Berlin, yet they are anything but typical. When the family hired the nanny, they had no idea that she would attempt to expose them and their business connections. The television program might go into greater detail about the Nanny’s reasons for believing that the family is concealing something as well as the business she works for. When the family realizes the nanny is more than just a babysitter, it can look at the nanny’s life.
