Not bad

Not the most original story. Hero and ugly duckling aristo fall slowly in love during the investigation into the rather squishy death of his wife. I wasn’t really bothered who did it in the end but the main characters kept things trotting along.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
