The mystery in this production was intricate enough to keep interest, and the acting was excellent. However, it is the personal tragedies of the main characters that are the most interesting things in the story, and the lead actors bring this across very well. (I wonder why we don't see Sharon Small in other things. ) Both Lynley and Havers are complex characters that are compelling. Anyone could enjoy this, even if this is the viewer's first Lynley/Havers story. However, those who have seen these characters through the earlier story's will more appreciate the nuances of the principal characters. Unlike many movies, much less television shows, the characters' pasts impact the present in clear ways that keep the viewer emotionally involved.
This was a very enjoyable entry in the Inspector Lynley Mysteries.
