A town of insomniacs is rocked by the discovery of a young boy's body on a beach and it falls to the newly appointed D.I., a sickly Scot with a cross to bear, and his second-in-command, an inexperienced local policewoman, to determine who among the nocturnal townsfolk is the killer, in this mostly gripping mystery - well, for the first six of the eight episodes - which plays out like a movielength episode of, say, Midsomer Murders stretched to eight tv episodes by way of innumerous slow motion walking scenes and lingering shots of the town's distinctive cliffs and beaches.
★★★☆☆
