This show is framed as a sort of who-done-it regarding the murder, but the culprit is more or less revealed by the second episode. You may wonder, how can an 8 episode series be compelling when you already know who the killer is early into it? Well, it can't. By the last few episodes when they finally show flashbacks of the actual crime, it's like "uh yeah, we already know who did it". There are no twists, nor anything to even remotely justify why the killer did what they did. I know this was based on a true story/crime, but if so, it must have been an incredibly stupid crime because the killer literally has no justification and/or motivation whatsoever. I don't know if that is consistent with the actual crime, but it makes for very confusing TV. It's a shame, Tokyo (Ursala) is a good actress and the other actors do a decent job but the whole premise and story are just so non-sensical the only emotion it left me with was "huh?".
