The psychological thriller has many multi-faceted characters and Preaker (played by Amy Adams), is one of them. Her dysfunctionality and alcoholism, coupled with her traumatic past, do not take away her grit and determination as a journalist, who is hell-bent on solving her hometown’s murders. Instead, all this makes her even more human and real.
