Review by keith-618

I really liked this. To be honest in many ways it's a standard police procedural: A female police sergeant given an important job and given a geeky male police constable as an assistant. (She's expected to fail but we suspect she won't.) Three 90 min episodes to find the murderer. But the writing is sharp, modern and witty. The locations (St Andrews, Scotland) are stunning. But the best part is the casting. Really good young actors who I wasn't familiar with. Lauren Lyle is terrific as Karen Pirie and Chris Jenks is great as Jason, her sidekick. The combination of their performances and the sharp dialogue made me laugh out loud more than once. Altogether a great ensemble cast and good direction. It's not fast and furious but you really get to know and like the characters.
