About
"A mystery inside a mystery, cleverly stitched together"
An editor reads the final manuscript of a bestselling crime novelist, a whodunit set in a sleepy English village solved by detective Atticus Pünd. But the author has just died in suspicious circumstances, and the book's last chapter is missing. The show cuts between the fictional 1950s mystery and the present-day investigation, letting clues in one world illuminate the other. It's a cosy, literate puzzle box, unhurried and dialogue-driven, carried by Lesley Manville's sharp, wry lead performance and the pleasure of two mysteries solving each other.
the ingenious dual-timeline structure where a fictional whodunit and a real murder solve each other.
you want fast-paced thrills rather than a slow, literary puzzle.
Written by our AI editor to help you decide, spoiler-free by design.
