Nine Puzzles
When cryptic puzzles begin appearing at the scenes of seemingly random murders, is it coincidence—or the calling card of something far more sinister?
This drama follows the journey of a young woman whose life is shattered the day she comes home from school to find her beloved uncle murdered. Beside his lifeless body lies a single puzzle piece—drenched in blood. That moment marks the beginning of a chilling mystery that will shape her future.
Labeled as "different" and eyed with suspicion by the very police meant to protect her, she decides to take matters into her own hands. Fueled by determination, she sets her sights on becoming a criminal profiler.
Years later, she’s achieved her dream—but the nightmare isn’t over. A string of murders begins, each crime scene marked by the same eerie signature: a puzzle piece left behind.
Is the killer taunting her? Or is this the beginning of something far more personal?
Can she outwit the mind behind the puzzles before it’s too late?
Watch to find out.
My Review….
I thought the mystery in this drama was well-crafted and engaging. The central plot kept me intrigued, especially the reveal of the real killer, which took time to unfold. However, I did have a few issues. Some characters felt unnecessary and added little to the overall story, while the climax itself didn’t quite deliver the punch I was hoping for. Several subplot twists were predictable, and the eccentric behavior of the main leads sometimes made the narrative feel unnecessarily convoluted.
That said, if you enjoy mysteries and thrillers, this makes for a solid one-time watch. It’s fast-paced, keeps you guessing, and holds your attention till the end.
Stream or skip? That’s up to you—but it’s worth a shot if you like solving puzzles alongside the plot.
