This is a strong show: understated and solid. It promises what it delivers and takes a substantive and unassuming stance. I found it refreshing to be shown the crime from the perspective of the chief investigative officer solving it- and very interesting to see the real life detectives in the UK whose fictional counterparts many of us have come to treasure. The detectives tell of their cases straightforwardly, without bragging or self-promotion, but they do convey the emotional impact the crimes had on them. The crimes themselves are free of the fictional twists and turns we might find in a fictional show but more than engrossing given the impact on real human lives. More compelling than most true crime shows because it is free of gimmicks and silly dramatic flourishes. Only Season One (with 4 episodes) seems to be available on Amazon Prime- I don't know if other episodes were made but I hope they were and continue to be.
