The premise is beyond absurd.  I can't commit.  The preview had me going nope.  I'll read y'alls comments to verify. 

Agreed. The likelihood that this many murders can occur within an unlikely group of true crime aficionados' interpersonal circle, and them not only having nothing to do with said murders, but ultimately solving them? Completely implausible. I'm just not buying it.

As a reader, I will paraphrase John Irving, "I wonder if people who complain about a work of fiction not being 'realistic' understand that what they really don't like is, plot."  I get the complaint, but if you watch mysteries (especially serial mysteries that follow individuals solving murders) this is the number one thing that you need to let go of to enjoy.  None of us would want to vacation in St. Marie in the Caribbean because over 100 people have been murdered there.  But Death in Paradise has a strong audience.

I certainly hope you weren't a Sons of Anarchy fan.

 

I'll check it out just for this:
