If you don't want to spend an entire day sucked into an addictive television hole, we'd suggest not turning on All Her Fault. The thrilling mystery – which stars Sarah Snook and Dakota Fanning – charts a mother who turns up to collect her son from a playdate only to find he's not there. What follows is a chilling story about a missing child, intertwined with themes of maternal sacrifice, family secrets, and the uneasy truth that you can never really know the people closest to you.
But if, like us, you have managed to race through every episode, and you're left wanting something else to watch, we've got you covered. Below, five series like All Her Fault that are guaranteed to have the same addictive effect.
1. Disclaimer

When journalist Catherine Ravenscroft (Cate Blanchett) discovers a mysterious novel has been written about a life-altering secret from her past, her seemingly perfect existence starts to crumble. As she tries to track down who wrote it — and how they know so much — old memories surface and the line between truth and fiction disappears. Each episode peels back another layer of her story, revealing that the person she’s most afraid of might not be who she thinks. Like so many good shows, there's an unbelievable twist towards the end.
2. The Undoing

4. Behind Her Eyes
Where to watch: Netflix
