This was a quirky but quite endearing mystery series, featuring a rumpled older detective inspector with a beater car and a love for American country music, along with his two young wise-cracking detective sidekicks (a woman and a man), and a delightfully oddball female Russian pathologist, who solve local murders in small town New Zealand.
I found by the final season that I was wearying of the story and the characters, which I find is not unusual with many TV series. Producers and writers don’t always know when it’s time to pull the plug on what was a very good idea when it started. With those reservations, recommended.
