About

You may like this if you enjoy very slow, mood-first crime stories with long quiet stretches and a brooding atmosphere, somewhat like Maigret; Not for you if you need fast pacing or lots of plot movement.

Pros: striking seaside atmosphere; moody artsy vibe | Cons: extremely slow pace; very little dialogue; feels boring
