## What critics say

Audiences gave White Lines a mixed reception, finding its Ibiza thriller premise engaging in parts but uneven overall.

## Synopsis

White Lines (2020) is a British-Spanish crime thriller series created by Álex Pina for Netflix. Laura Haddock plays Zoe Walker, a woman who abandons her quiet life to investigate the disappearance of her brother in Ibiza, and who is pulled deeper into the island's decadent nightlife than she ever intended. Her search brings her into contact with DJs, club promoters and people tangled in drug trafficking, where every lead tests her loyalties and her sense of who to trust. Nuno Lopes, Marta Milans and Juan Diego Botto appear among the principal supporting cast, each entangled in the island's shadowy economy. The series unfolds as a single ten-episode season with a continuing mystery, so each episode tightens the grip of the investigation rather than standing alone. Its tone is sun-bleached and restless, with a propulsive, neon-tinged atmosphere that mixes glamour with dread. Viewers who enjoy the nightlife-noir of Narcos and the ensemble intrigue of Money Heist will find a similar pull here. Set in contemporary Ibiza, the show balances the party-island surface against the criminal network hidden underneath.
