A four part limited series commissioned by Channel 5, produced by Story Films UK.

​'Too Good to be True' follows the story of hard working, single mother Rachel and her young son Liam. She works all hours of the day as a cleaner to give him the best life she can, but it's a struggle. One day, her boss at the cleaning agency is approached by a businesswoman who says she’s acting for an extremely wealthy client called Elliot. Her client wants Rachel to come and clean for him exclusively. Better pay, less hours – it sounds too good to be true. Elliot’s behaviour towards Rachel and Liam becomes increasingly odd, controlling even. When suspicions are raised, Rachel starts to dig into his past, uncovering a dark and disturbing story from his childhood that sets off a nail biting game of cat and mouse.

​All episodes directed by Megan K. Fox, produced by John Wallace. Available to view now on Apple TV+
