Caught (2025) is a gripping Spanish-language thriller series on Netflix, adapted from Harlan Coben’s novel. Set in the picturesque yet haunting landscapes of Bariloche, Argentina, the story follows investigative journalist Ema Garay (Soledad Villamil), renowned for exposing criminals who evade justice. Her latest case involves the disappearance of 16-year-old Martina Schulz, leading her to suspect Leo Mercer (Juan Minujín), a respected social worker. Ema’s pursuit of truth uncovers a complex web of deceit, where appearances are deceiving, and the line between victim and perpetrator blurs.

As Ema delves deeper, she confronts not only external challenges but also her own past and the ethical boundaries of journalism. The series masterfully intertwines themes of misinformation, social media-driven judgments, and the abuse of power, keeping viewers on edge through its six episodes. With a compelling narrative and strong performances, Caught stands out as a thought-provoking addition to Netflix’s lineup of crime dramas.
