Fearless and playful, she acts on instinct; both avenging angel and a bit of a shit stirrer; deeply empathetic and blunt to the point of rudeness. And with a deeply irreverent sense of humor to boot. Other than the fact her husband died a few years ago, very few people know much about Alexa or why she left the force, rendering this woman a mystery in and of herself. And Alexa can't resist a mystery, so when former colleague and long-time friend Detective Inspector Kieran Hussey asks her to "consult" on his trickier cases, she seems reluctant. But in truth, she can't resist. Joining Alexa to solve the unsolvable is the bubbly, sarcastic, ambitious and grounded, Madison. A true extrovert, Madison works as a Data Analyst for the Police and is on hand at Alexa's call to do what she does best. Written by ten press releas
案件大都并不足够悬疑,但自有其风格,对侦探片情有独钟的观众应该不会排斥。对于在墨尔本生活过的人而言,无轨电车,城市街巷,步行桥,Flinders Street火车站,Crown Casino门前点火的石柱,雅拉河里离弦的划艇,教堂,…… 皆是回忆。这个城市的独特风味,那种水到渠成的华贵,对比暴发户的穷奢极欲,真是令人沉迷。
女主角和女配角的搭配,为本剧增添了些许喜剧元素,不算高级,也还讨喜。每集45分钟左右的长度,基本没有注水。无论是作为罪案剧还是风光片,都值得四星。
