Television fanatics are making a case for Netflix’s ‘brilliant’ thriller series.
Unfortunately, the streaming giant has drawn criticism recently for brutally binning off the likes of Shadow and Bone and comedy-drama Glamorous.
However, viewers have also taken to social media to praise the platform for the latest instalment of their Colombian telenovela, The Marked Heart.

The show centres around Simón (Brown), a man whose wife Valeria (Margarita Muñoz) has been murdered by a crime syndicate. The reason? So that they can harvest her heart and transplant it into another person, of course.
As Simón spirals deeper into the world of organ trafficking he meets Camila (Domínguez) - the person who receives his wife’s heart - and her husband, Zacarías (Sebastián Martínez), who bankrolled the theft in the first place.
The thriller is the brainchild of Venezuelan screenwriter and author Leonardo Padrón and has been directed by Camilo Vega.
