Review:
"Giambanco keeps the suspenseful plot moving with the assured pacing of the film editor that she is . . . she has created a series-worthy star in Madison, a complex young woman striving to put her own troubled past behind her . . . Hopefully, she's got more in store for Madison's well-earned return."―Publishers Weekly
