As this eight part Mexican drama series opens a woman forces her way into a building, shoots and injures a few people, then takes a doctor hostage on the building's roof. The police surround the building and the hostage taker is shot. A forensics officer arrives at the scene and is shocked to see the injured woman looks just like her, and addresses her by name. She soon learns many facts about herself that she didn't previously know... she was adopted and is actually a triplet. As she tries to learn more about her origins she finds herself endangered by those who for reasons that later become apparent, want it to remain a secret.
I thought this was a solid enough series although the premise will have anybody who watched 'Orphan Black' suspecting that this would turn out to be a Spanish language remake. Thankfully it doesn't take that route and gives us something different. There are plenty of twists and turns, some more obvious than others and a good degree of tension. Somewhat inevitably things do get a bit melodramatic towards the end. Maite Perroni did an impressive job as the three triplets; each of them was distinctive in appearance and manner. Overall a decent enough series that I'd recommend even if it isn't really a must see.
These comments are based on watching the series in Spanish with English subtitles.
