I found it to be a gripping, poignant story that was well-acted and beautifully filmed. My one criticism of it is the relationship between the nurse and her sick patient; it struck me as very unrealistic and could still have served the plot well if it had been close but less intimate. A Canadian show well worth watching!&#8217;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"321\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nichesitetool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/SEI_246520494-a1c2.jpg\" class=\"article-image wp-image-22858926\" alt=\"Amazon Prime viewers kept ?guessing until the very end? by gritty thriller\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t<\/div><figcaption>The Disappearance is about the investigation into a missing boy (Picture: CTV\/Amazon\/Amazon Prime Studios)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Echoing their sentiment, Catherine Wild said: &#8216;A good watch.
