### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Well written and well-acted
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2018*

There are two stories in this set.  Each story is split into two parts so there are four episodes.  The box says that the run time is 200 minutes so that is 50 minutes per episode.  They are both murder mysteries and the main character is a police detective.  The stories are based upon the novels of Mark Billingham.The first two episodes deal with the disappearance of two girls in the hometown of the main character (Helen Weeks).  Helen's best friend from her school days asks her to come back home to support her through a personal crisis.  Amidst the mystery of the missing girls is a mystery of a trauma faced by Helen and her best friend when they were about 14 years old.  The story mostly stays in the present with flashbacks to the past which slowly reveal what happened to the girls.  We also learn that Helen is pregnant.  I found the resolution to be a little bit convenient.  They were nowhere in the investigation really when all of a sudden, Helen processes a piece of information she has recently learned, relates it back to a previous conversation and announces she knows who the killer is.  Despite that convenient and quick resolution, it was a really good, captivating story, well-acted.The second story finds Helen in the last month of her pregnancy and facing a personal crisis.  Her personal crisis is the basis of the story and she faces personal threat in her pursuit to find out why this tragedy has befallen her.  I'm being intentionally cryptic so as not to give away any of the story.  Although Helen solves the murder, there is a portion of the story that goes unresolved.While the first story had a convenient, quick resolution, it was a complete resolution.  The second story's resolution was far more complex, but not nearly as satisfying because all guilty parties were not brought to justice.

    Solid but not truly exceptional.

This miniseries stars MyAnna Buring (Ripper Street) as Helen Weeks, a Manchester detective.  Helen is the focus of what are actually two largely-separate stories consisting of two episodes (50 minutes/episode) each.  Helen is pregnant, barely showing at the outset and delivering her baby in the final episode.  The first story concerns the abduction of two young girls in Helen's (small) home town.  She goes there with her romantic partner because the individual arrested for the abductions is the husband of Helen's best friend from back in the day.  Helen believes him to be innocent and tries to prove his innocence while steering clear of the local authorities.In the second episode one of the series principals is murdered.  This individual had recently-discovered connections with several underworld characters and died during what appears to have been a gang initiation in which the wannabe member of the gang (which deals drugs) must kill a stranger driving in an adjoining car.  The second story, as the reader can deduce, is somewhat complicated and is less plausible than the story occupying the first two episodes.Bottom lines: good acting, good sense of setting, engaging plots, the second a bit too convoluted.  There are several well-known British character actors in the series (Ben Batt, Tim McInnerny), a slightly annoying musical score but a solid four episodes of entertainment.Not in the league of the great British mysteries, but a good weekend's worth of viewing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great plots
  

*by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2019*

I watched this last night and enjoyed it.  I'm a Brit mystery fanatic so I'm not that easy to please.  The leading lady is a very good actress and I would take a second glance at anything she's in.
