This has actresses in it I have liked in other roles, and it seemed to get very good reviews, so we gave it a try. My wife thought it was practically unwatchable; I stop short of that and say I didn’t like it much. The narration got on our nerves. It reminded me (and other reviewers) of Pushing Daisies, a comedy that had a cute concept but a really irritating voiceover where it kept saying things like “Five days, five hours and twenty minutes before...” It just isn’t that witty of a device. The plot wound through three threads. The murder the main character was trying to sole, a mystery involving her mother many years before, and a fictional murder in a novel one of the characters wrote. It might have been two many plots to run at once.
