Writer Neil Forsyth has struck gold again with his new six-part drama that's layered with high stakes and humour.

Engaging but not gripping, authentic but not original...

I wouldn’t describe it as a feel-good story, exactly, but the emphasis here is on the ingenuity and bravery of these amateur investigators rather than the darkness of the drug trade.

The energy spent keeping things serious prevents the series catching fire. But it remains a brilliant story, here well told.

This gritty, thrilling series has complicated cons and haunted heroes.

...deals with the life-and-death stakes that people in way over their heads were forced to contend with, all for a job that hardly paid well considering the risk of it all.
