6/10
Dark, Mysterious.

Warning: Spoilers
It's not a typical serial murderer story with slick knives and bath tubs of gore. It's dark and moody. It rains a lot and much of the story takes place at night. Typical scene: the chief investigator and the colleague he once was hooked up with sit in his car. The car's headlights are on, illuminating a blank wall where one of the murders took place. It's drizzling and the windshield wipers arc back and forth. The two people speak quietly to one another and the conversation is elliptic. Only gradually is it revealed that the two have had an affair.

I'm giving this six stars because I think it was intelligent, deliberate, and thoughtful. But I didn't make it to the end, and what I did hear was sometimes unintelligible. I don't know whether it was the sound on my system or the acting or the Yorkshire accents. I weren't at all sure.

I was confused too because this is evidently part two of a miniseries and I hadn't seen part one. I don't know whether that made a difference or not.

Good luck with it.
