這是威爾S4電視臺1994年開播的一兇案推理集。曾出《最后的西干人》《Doctor Who》的威爾士著名男Philip Madoc在本劇中成鬻子的造了威爾驚嘆Noel Bavaria這一經(jīng)典形。Bavaria具有與生俱來破案能力他不依靠何現(xiàn)代科技術(shù)的協(xié)，純粹本的直覺，明的材質(zhì)縝密的推來破獲多重大案件但與此同，Bavaria也得罪了一大黑幫惡徒他必須保自己以及貝女兒的命。整部集格調(diào)陰，畫面凄，我們幾找不到威士的田園景。全劇高度的真性和演員的出色表使各大權(quán)電視媒體其與《窺者》（Cracker）和《摩督查》（Supervision of Moses）并稱為英最出色的罪心理題系列劇。Philip Madoc played Detective Chief Inspector Noel Bain, who looks back nostalgically to the days when policing involved chasing villains, playing rugger and drinking Guinness, but has come to recognise that contemporary policing imposes dilemmas that no training manual could ever contemplate.Bain is a widower and has a tempestuous relationship with his daughter, Hannah Bain, (Fion Wilkins) who, despite resenting the lack of time her father spent with the family because of police work, becomes a WPC on the same police force. DCI Bain's close friendship with police pathologist Prof. Margaret Edwards (Sharon Morgan) remains enigmatic as he fears treading the same path that caused so many problems for his family.
