An elusive serial killer known as the Zodiac terrorizes the San Francisco Bay in the late 1960s, while detectives aim to stop him before he claims more victims. Based on a true story.
Mystery crime series in which a detective uses the skills of an astrologer to help solve the riddles and puzzles of his cases. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but the result was rather tatty and the show had no redeeming features at all. This was a golden opportunity for the lovely but charmed Ms Hempel to move on to a leading role in her acting career, but she obviously has not done her homework here, stunting a series which perhaps could have lasted a couple of seasons in the hands of a keen and hard working young actress?. Its left to the more than reliable Anton Rogers to up the intrigue and try and hold what there is of the show together.
