You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a cozy, nostalgia-tinged village whodunnit with a clergy sleuth and community drama, in the vein of Grantchester or Father Brown; Not for you if you need fast pacing, airtight clues, and a fully satisfying motive.

Pros: cozy village mystery; strong nostalgic vibe; bingeable six-episode pace | Cons: uneven writing; confusing time period; weak or illogical motive
