    There’s not much originality in the writing, but the dynamic between the two bothered characters works… and the pace has a decent ebb and flow.

    The setting of the Australian outback and wild nature helps to while away the slow pace and long introduction to season 1. Otherwise, it’s very good. A multi-layered plot, where the murder weapons include snakes and crocodiles, non-standard, lively main characters, psychological insight, wow-finales.
