Matt Roush says...
This loose adaptation of an Agatha Christie classic opens with a solicitor (Clarke Peters) laying out his theory of a good detective story. “They begin in the wrong place. They begin with the murder. … The murder is the end. The story begins long before, years before, when the murder is seeded. The point zero, if you will.” And so it is as the first chapter of a three-part whodunit sets up the intrigue to come, when 1930s golden-boy tennis star Nevile Strange (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) visits his invalid aunt (Anjelica Huston) at her seaside estate of Gull’s Point, creating an awkward triangle after he arranges for both his ex-wife Audrey (Ella Lily Hyland) and glamorous new wife Kay (Mimi Keene) to be there at the same time, all still recovering from a messy public divorce hearing. Other guests become suspects as well when murders occur, and it’s up to a war-damaged Inspector Leach (a bedraggled Matthew Rhys, not far removed from his Perry Mason persona) to solve the crimes. More episodes drop Thursday and Friday.
