Statistically speaking, this remote Scottish archipelago might be an unlikely setting for a crime series, but, atmospherically, there's nowhere better suited. Go to Full Review

Diana P @dianapowers Mar 23 Season Two is supposed to be based on the book, Raven Black. They changed names. They changed plot. It was unrecognizable and annoying to watch. Why mess with a good thing? I don’t get it. It took effort to rewrite this thing for nought. See more K F @RT29864102 02/15/2025 Season 2 couldn't hold my attention. I kept stopping and starting until I lost the story and track of the characters. Eventually I stopped trying to and just left it running to get to the end. I like Douglas Henshall but realised partway through this season he has no charisma in this show so far. See more Jack H @RT27925413 12/11/2024 Took me a while, but I did get into it. See more Anita F @RT48915707 08/28/2023 Wonderful series! I hope the series goes on for a long time. See more 06/10/2019 Fabulous, great cast, great storyline, love the scenery, and the Scottish dialects. I am addicted to this series. See more Read all reviews
