I loved the slow build. People want everything served up in a neat, fast package. The real goal is to enjoy the storytelling and the journey to the end. I can't wait for episode 2. Hopefully there will be more than 4 episodes.
The scenery was amazing as well. Definitely added to the story. Acting was good at all levels. I don't believe there was a supporting character that wasn't believable . Which sadly isn't the case with a lot of shows anymore. Usually there's an actor that's cringe worthy or they've built an absurd character into the show on purpose. Either way it distracts from the show and that wasn't the case here.

I truly enjoy the story and the scenic beauty. The first 3 episodes were great... I am waiting for the last episode to hopefully tie up the ends of the story. The characters are rich, and the location is great. It encourages made it to explore the history of the regions and to understand what was going on there as well as in my own country, I appreciate seeing law-enforcement in other countries and how they handle crimes . I have family that lived in Sydney Australia, and this makes me want to visit and see New Zealand. The beauty there in some of the scenes is spectacular, and I would hope that some of the stories about its history would continue.
A good ongoing mystery (terrible title) but the mystery wasn't resolved. I was waiting for another episode to see who killed Maja. Harry (who seemed to be dating Veronica) was definitely a bad guy, but what did he do? He's obviously up to no good, but he disappeared in the end and we see Maja in the enclosure supposedly dead. What exactly happened? Who killed her? Was it her husband or Harry or the guy who killed the man who killed Anais' father and sister? Too many bad guys to keep track of. I was very confused. If this was supposed to be cliffhanger it was not a very good one. I keep checking to see if another episode will show up.
This series was an absolute delight from start to finish, offering a captivating storyline that kept me thoroughly engaged throughout. The exceptional performances delivered by the cast were nothing short of extraordinary, bringing depth and authenticity to each character in ways that truly resonated with viewers like myself. While the final episode took some creative risks, it showcased the show's boldness and willingness to leave a lasting impression on its audience. Though certain plotlines remained open-ended, this approach added an intriguing layer of mystery and invited fans to reflect on the characters' journeys long after the credits rolled. It's clear that every detail was crafted with care, as evidenced by the breathtaking scenery that elevated key moments within the narrative. Additionally, the undeniable talent of the actors shone brightly, leaving no doubt about their ability to immerse us fully into the world of the series. Overall, this experience has been incredibly rewarding, reminding me why I fell in love with storytelling in the first place-it's not just about resolutions but also about sparking imagination and connection through artistry.
I am always looking for a new show that holds my attention and makes me want more when I'm up to date on my watching, and was delighted to find this show. So many times, I watch two or three episodes and I'm bored. That didn't happen with this show. The New Zealand landscape is breathtaking. The characters are well filled out. This show fits the bill. Spectacular cast and very good story line. Hopefully many more seasons to come. I think they have a winner here. Chelsie Preston Crayford was unknown to me, and she is really spectacular in this role. Matt Whelan is great as her partner. There's not a character on this show that was poorly cast. Thank you for this.
