According to Netflix’s description, Erin’s journey unfolds as she grapples with her mysterious past: “Sometimes running from your past leads you right back to it.
“That’s how things are shaping up for British expat Erin Carter after relocating to Barcelona.
“Her exit from the UK was a bit rushed, but we don’t quite know why, and when her local grocery store is held up by gunmen, Erin, now a substitute teacher, starts kicking a**.
“Like, hard.
“So much so that the police begin to wonder how she’s managed it. She’s a teacher. How does she know all these slick moves?
“Soon, her tranquil life in Spain spirals out of control, and her mysterious – and violent – past is exposed.”
