The show has broken records as it is the first ever Greek series to hit Netflix and in the US, it is the only entry in the top 10 that is not a Netflix Original.

Despite the story sounding like a romantic novel, it quickly becomes a juicy crime drama after someone is murdered in the Paxos community.
