    This new series goes a long way to doing the books justice.

    Director Justin Chadwick keeps it all running at a fast clip while the Hughes/Boyle odd-couple pairing clicks. And the historical elements punch up a convoluted mystery that has surprising ties to actual events.

    The actor [Arthur Hughes], who anchors every scene he plays, has charisma to spare, and, assuming an audience arrives, this will one day be characterized as a star-making performance. .... Adapted by Stephen Butchard (“The Good Mothers”) in four relatively lean, well-packed episodes, the series includes a complement of classic procedural scenes. .... It’s no surprise to learn that the series was partially filmed in Transylvania. We are on unfamiliar familiar ground, and it feels good.
