I didn't feel too invested in these characters, they lacked depth and motivation. The lead investigators had no chemistry and the master manipulating bad guy didn't feel wicked enough. The storylines were well developed and the cinematography beautifully dark.

My wife and I liked the first couple of episodes, but the last four were incredible slow-moving. Every detective series has to mix pure detective work with some personal background. The characters in this series have way too much personal baggage, which isn't very interesting. We were glad when it ended.

We've got a series with a good plot, but (too many) weak sub plots. The acting is good overall, but weakened by the sub plots and the constant tissues in Servaz hand.

The filming, environment and atmosphere are above average. By the way, where are the French cars? What's with the Subaro and Volvo?! Not credible.

They thought they would get a second season, that never happened, hence the illogical behaviors in the finale and the bad ending!

This series depicted spectacular winter scenery. I was also impressed with the quality of the actors, especially those who played the roles of Martin and Julian. However, the plot was overly complicated; there were too many strands that were not really connected to the plot and were not resolved satisfactorily. In addition, I was very disappointed with the ending - unless, they are planning a second season.

The brilliant quality of lighting, camera and direction in the first 2 episodes slides into overly complex plotting, hacked editing, and character failures. The last episode is truly awful. I suppose the budget ran out, all spent early in the series. That hackneyed ending was infuriating and insulting, just to continue the Hirtman-Lecter into another season; a very cowardly producer, sadly.

Watch the first 2 episodes, then pretend a good ending, and drop it. Or, get your teeth-pulling pliers out.

Ugh. What a waste of potential.
