Sam Wollaston Guardian 07/13/2017
In The Dark is by no means a trope-free zone... But once you have accepted that, it's a crisp opener (of four) -- pacy, thoughtful and skilfully constructed, with multiple strands I am eager to see twisted together again. Go to Full Review
Michael Hogan Daily Telegraph (UK) 07/13/2017
3/5
It was taut and tensely atmospheric with an intriguing premise which found its heroine caught in the middle between police and prime suspect. Go to Full Review
Julie McDowall The National (Scotland) 06/28/2018
In The Dark offers a female detective who has similarities to Cawood but who's then yanked back into the land of the bland copper by the old TV tropes. Go to Full Review
Louis Wise Sunday Times (UK) 12/27/2017
The writing and direction somehow made this all jog along briskly, and there was none of the wafty reliance on "atmosphere" so many thrillers turn to when they've run out of ideas. Go to Full Review

Gil H @RT15217744 01/26/2024 The character of DI Weeks is the most infuriating person in this series. I would say due to her traumatic childhood she has some sort of mental condition. Goodness knows how she was recruited into the police force and rose to DI. So many mistakes in her personal life resulting in stupid mistakes on the job. The story line was good but spoiled by a poor main character. See more Read all reviews
