Common Sense Media

Undemanding but not unsatisfying, its story of a seemingly haunted bookshop is easy to settle into and deliberately obvious clues are dropped along the way.

Rated: 3/5

The case itself is nothing special, but it features enough twists to keep viewers on their toes, and Cox and Grammer make for a fine detective duo.

Excellent mystery that has witty dialogue and good acting. Keisey Grammer has chemistry with the protagonist and hopefully this is the first of a significant number of episodes.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

No mystery, no deductive skills demonstrated. Just a bunch of wealthy aristocrats playing detective. Bob Kane should sue for plagiarism.

Horrible choice of main character. The actress is way to old, she could be very well be the mother of the character she is playing. But the worst thing is her total lack of acting skills.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Now this brings vibes of absolute classics British television was famous from. I know nowadays our brains are washed with CGI, fantasy sagas, huge budget productions and strobing pace of montage, so if you are looking for it here - you won't find it. Instead there is a classic ghost mystery in a small, English town. So if you are 80's TV shows fan - jump on!
