I liked the teamwork angle of the investigative group, not all of them being caucasians or 20-somethings. Nicola Walker is a longtime favorite, but this wasn't the best series she's been a part of. The story was OK, though it lacks urgency. Very conversational, lots and lots of case chit-chat while driving... talking while walking to or from a car... or phone calls in a car -- I saw more of the inside of a car than I would have liked. One of those whodunnits where they suggest various plausible scenarios throughout, pick a perpetrator at the end -- could easily be anyone, produce the final explanatory backstory, and roll the credits -- not my favorite crime drama formula.
Not terrible, but season 1 hasn't motivated me to sit through season 2.
@chaztv I sensed some vindictiveness in season one. Too many reformed characters on the periphery of the crime were hammered. Only he who is without sin, should caste the first stone.
