Review by Morning.star
Compelling, with just the right amount of humor - a nice change. Smart writing. A welcome relief from all the dark Scandinavian murder mysteries. Love the asides.

| Summary | DI Annika Strandhed, the speedboat-driving head of Glasgow's newly-formed Marine Homicide Unit, juggles baffling cases and a rebellious teenage daughter. Joined by DS Michael McAndrews, Annika's old colleague; DC Blair Ferguson, the forensic brains behind the unit; and DS Tyrone Clarke, the new cop at the station. A police procedural with wit, Annika delighted critics during its recent UK broadcast. 'The dialogue is so droll and the performances so charming I'm in for what fisherfolk call the long haul,' enthused the reviewer for The Guardian (UK) and The Times (UK) offered this praise, 'Annika allows Walker to let loose a warm sense of humor.'. |
