Excellent murder mystery

Binge watched this over CNY and loved it! The mystery really kept me hooked from start til end. I wish C-Ent will make more mini series like this to keep things tight and edgy rather then long-winded 70+ episode dramas.

If you're a fan of Agatha Christie, this is for you. I won't name which mystery this show is very close to avoid spoilers. ;-)

This drama starts off with a dead victim - Zhong Mei Bao (Angelababy). Two detectives are tasked to solve the mystery and they start off with interviewing residents of the condo that she was murdered in, which then expands to digging further and further into Mei Bao's family ties, history and possible suspects. Plot twists galore too!

Characters - I like ALL of them. Angelababy is particularly good considering she gets trashed a lot for her acting. I think she did a great job as the lead (?) in this show. She made me bawl my eyes out in the final 3 episodes.

Special mention to the 2 detectives. They typically paired a senior and a rookie but you see how they both teach each other so much. This show also gives the 2 detectives airtime for their personal lives which I'd like to applaud so that you get to take some time off the main murder.

I felt the first half started off a bit slow, but I do think it was necessary to also build the plot. This show is very rewatchable simply because it's short and you feel like you'd wanna re-watch the episodes to catch clues you might have missed. Highly recommended from me.
