A delightful story - breakout performance by Clara Rugaard
A fabulous tale, following Neve Kelly investigating her own murder. It is well paced, has some surprising twists and turns and is filmed against a beautiful backdrop with some stunning cinematography.
Enjoyable and entertaining, it wins no awards for originality, but on its own terms it delivers a credible, authentic story which is a joy to watch. Clara Rugaard is outstanding as Neve portraying a range of emotions, from bewilderment at being dead, sadness over things she learns to indignant rage at the perpetrator.
There are weaknesses, some of the casting choices are questionable, there are several liberties taken with plot flow and the final episode struggles to be relevant with little work left to do.
Despite the above, this is a good watch. A second season is possible, but it will likely lack the emotional punch required.
