This is suspenseful with fabulous atmosphere.
Bertie Carvel is absolutely masterful as Adam Dalgliesh. We subscribe to Acorn TV and Britbox to see high quality shows like this. American shows rely heavily on violence instead of solid storytelling and suspense, it's predictable and tiring. This is a murder mystery so there is violence, but it also has fully developed characters that are really believable. It takes place in the 70's with great cars and clothes. Oh and the refreshing absence of tech! Every story is in two parts so be sure to plan for an hour and a half, I have to see both parts in one watch!
