This is a long miniseries (6 episodes of 90 min. each) for so little content.

In its general structure, a new case gets investigated and solved in each episode, while the same Dantesque super serial killer keeps getting closer and closer to our hero.

The actors are all right and, in particular, the women are gorgeous. But the script is so boring and uninspiring that no amount of acting talent can really save it. Pseudoerudite references to Dante's Divina Commedia litter the landscape, in a failed attempt to get close to successful works such as "The rule of four", "The Da Vinci code" and "The Dante club". Watching the characters' interactions in excruciating detail is like watching paint dry -- e.g., when an inspector asks a subordinate to perform some background task as part of an investigation, we see *every* unimportant word that passes between them, with no irrelevant details spared as the script struggles to fill the long available time.

I was literally on the edge of my seat for the final two episodes. SO refreshing to view a series with warmth, intelligence, humor, and men and women who respect and care for each other. I found this to be far more realistic than the formulaic, bland, calculated and abysmally depressing programs from recent years. remember the culture we create today creates our future -- and sadly we have all but destroyed romance, generosity of spirit, and happy families in some weird pursuit of empty, shallow, hypersexualized (without affection) selfish solitude. This series is just great as an antidote: and believe me, there is no predicting the outcome, which was perfect. Classic theatre but made with verve for entertaining TV.
