LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The suspenseful, mysterious, and dangerous criminal thriller genre is a mainstay of both literature and film. It frequently features a main character who must solve a difficult and frequently grisly crime. This protagonist is usually a detective or investigator.

Often, the plot takes place in a seedy metropolitan environment where crime and violence are rampant. When the main character works against the time to find the murderer or uncover a diabolical scheme, even risking their own lives, the suspense increases. One such thriller is coming on Netflix, and it's titled, 'Thicker Than Water.’
