Bruno Solo (Blood on the Docks) stars as Gabriel Cauvy as he contends with the sudden death of his wife Rebecca in a suspicious car wreck. When the police blame the crash on Rebecca for drunk driving, Gabriel sets out to restore her honor and clear her name, but his search for the truth is more dangerous than he could have imagined. The DVD 2-Disc Set features 6 episodes ($39.99, Amazon.com). The Accident made its U.S. premiere in December 2017 on Acorn TV. Called a “glorious streaming service… an essential must-have”(The Hollywood Reporter), Acorn TV is North America’s most popular streaming service focused on British and international television from RLJ Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: RLJE).
Kindhearted construction boss Gabriel Cauvy lives with his wife, Rebecca, and daughter, Luna, in Sainte Lune, a picturesque but struggling village in Brittany, France. One day, Gabriel notices his wife behaving strangely, and hours later she is killed in a car wreck. Amid his grief, Gabriel also contends with the bizarre circumstances of the crash. Why was Rebecca’s car stopped in the middle of the road, facing the wrong way? Why did she have an empty bottle of vodka in the passenger seat when she didn’t drink liquor? Was it truly an accident? Or could it have been something more sinister?
When the police and the rest of Sainte Lune blame Rebecca for the crash, Gabriel determines to clear her name. But as he starts his own investigation, the residents of his quaint little town all seem to be hiding something—and the search for the truth is more dangerous than he could have imagined.

My Thoughts
The Accident is an exciting series that centers around.Gabriel Curvey. He's just a regular guy, working in construction and trying to support his family. Then his wife is killed under mysterious circumstances. Gabriel knows his wife couldn't have really been the cause of the accident and he works to prove her innocence. There are six episodes in this exciting suspense series.
1- Gabriel's wife Rebecca is acting a little odd. Hours later she dies in a car crash with a bottle of vodka on the seat.
2- Gabriel's daughter Luna gets bullied because her mother was accused of drunk driving. Someone steals Rebecca's accident report from the police station.
3-Rebecca's friend Ann is found murdered. Her husband is the number one suspect. When the police close Rebecca's case, Gabriel searches for the truth himself.
4-Someone shots at Luna in her home. Gabriel finds a ton of cash in the closet. Rebecca's friend Iris comes clean about a money-making scheme the women had going on.
5-Gabriel is almost killed in a fire, and suspects employee sabotage. The police find another body that may be connected to the case.
6- A big-time trafficker is killed. Gabriel comes close to finding the truth the Rebecca's death.
This was a really great show. I loved the devotion Gabriel showed towards his wife, and how he worked so hard to clear her name. There is a lot of action, and a surprise reveal I never saw coming. You can grab a copy of this fantastic series for yourself on DVD. It's available online at Acorn Media and on Amazon.
