Over the weekend, a new TV show took over viewers’ watch lists: All Her Fault. Starring Sarah Snook, Dakota Fanning and Sophia Lillis, the Peacock thriller series is an adaptation of Andrea Mara’s novel of the same name. The story revolves around the disappearance of five-year-old Milo, who went on a play date and never returned. His mother Marissa Irvine (Snook) must navigate a maelstrom of accusatory hate from the media while looking for her child, who she suspects was abducted by her friend’s nanny, Carrie Finch.

Meanwhile, Finch – played by 23-year-old actress Sophia Lillis – is on a journey of revenge. This unfolds in the finale, delivering one of the most satisfying TV plot twists of the year. Lillis is also earning high praise for her powerful performance on the show.
