An awesome double mystery, with 2 stories going hand in hand and finally culminating in a beautifully conceived climax !! One of the most satisfying Brit whodunits that I have watched in recent times.

The first mystery set in the present era is about a book editor's investigation into the murder of a famed novelist and the last missing chapter of his final novel featuring his most famous Detective Atticus Pünd .

The second mystery is set in 1955 and we actually follow Atticus Pünd go about solving the murder ( the novel itself which is missing the final chapter).

Who has killed the author and will the final chapter of the novel ever be retrieved is what this series is all about.

The 2 plots are integrated seamlessly into the narrative to make this series absolutely unmissable. The past/present storyline is interesting & using same actors in the both adds a totally different dimension to the storytelling.

It is unusual for me to lose control of my emotions while writing reviews .. but this series has actually made me do it . Going totally gaga over it !!

Sonyliv has a lot of good content to offer and this is just one of them.

My rating 5/5 for this brilliantly conceived and executed whodunit. ..adios 🙂
