Very compelling and fresh police drama

jwgorham-19680

The English really produce some excellent police and other dramas. Foyle's War hooked me very well, and Midsommer Murders landed me. Chasing Shadows is very different from both of these, and is intriguingly different.

Both principal characters are really interesting, and have lots of room for further development. The cleaning lady and her daughter, and the co-star's son, also have good potential for further involvement.

Most of all, I appreciate the cerebral plot and the focus on missing persons -- about which so little has been previously scripted. I certainly hope that this short series will be resurrected and given the run it deserves. I think it easily become a very popular series.

score 10/10
