Set against the backdrop of a beautiful part of the Galician coast this police procedural also incorporates elements of a political drama.
We learn the identity of the killer very quickly and the story moves to if and how the cops (and an amateur investigator) will also get their person. While this is happening the town council grapples over whether to give the go ahead to a mine that would wreck the delicate local ecology but which would provide jobs and money to the area.
After another totally unrelated murder the cops close in - but has the assassin been too clever for them? The ending is equivocal.
The series was characterised by good acting and smart character development. The back stories were also convincing. I watched this over a couple of days and it's a definite recommendation.
