A mystery masterpiece, 4 June 1999
9/10
Author: Suzi-9 from Virginia, USA

This is perhaps the best mystery I've seen on PBS Mystery! Interesting characters, suspenseful plot development, and flawless acting make this TV version of Minette Walter's mystery novel better than the book - and I've never said that about a movie vs. book before.
