I found this show to be highly engaging, thanks in no small part to the standout performances from McKidd and Coyle. With its bleak atmosphere, intricate plot, and ample intrigue, it evokes the feel of a Scandinavian crime drama.
Based on Hideo Yokoyama's novel, the show successfully transports the action from Japan to Scotland. While the plot may not be the most original - after all, TV is full of thrillers centered around missing girls - the story moves at a satisfying pace and delivers plenty of thrilling moments over the course of its four episodes. What sets it apart is its ability to balance visceral interpersonal emotion with genuine thrills, a feat that's never easy to pull off.
