For those missing Morse, there's a new DI in Oxford in the form of Hillary Greene, a strong female lead with a no-nonsense, tough talking attitude. She's got a great supporting cast in her colleagues, and there's plenty of intrigue in the background as her dodgy husband's dealings continue to haunt her. Margaret Moore brings Oxford to life beautifully while exposing the darker side of human nature for Greene's investigations. A good police procedural with interesting characters and plots.
