Pact of Silence

A new Netflix drama is proving a hit with fans who “can’t get enough” of the new show.

The Mexican thriller series called Pact of Silence/Pacto di Silencio, has proved a hit with fans around the world who have been gripped by the show’s plot and storyline.

Directed by Carlos Villegas Rosales and written by José Vicente Spataro, the series tells the story of Brenda Rey (played by Camila Valero), who is a social media influencer. Abandoned as a child by her mother and with a harrowing past, Rey decides to get revenge on the people who abandoned her at birth. 

The official synopsis for the show says: “When she was an infant, four private-school kids left Brenda Ray in the middle of the woods, in a shack.

“Brenda grew up homeless and was sexually abused, but through it all, she was determined to crawl her way out of poverty and make a name for herself. Now she’s a powerful social media influencer with connections and resources people only dream of.

“But instead of luxuriating in her riches and success, Brenda wants revenge on the women who conspired to hide her birth. With the help of her manager, Alex, she’s determined to find every single one of them, including the headmistress who enabled it all.”

On social media, fans have been raving about the new show. One described it as the “best Mexican series of watch,” while another said it was “so good.”

Another viewer added that it was “too fantastic” while another said it was “such a good binge.”
