The series takes a bit from House of Cards and a bit from John Le Carre and overall is interesting. At times though the plot jumps to keep the story moving along, the main character Harriet keeps having these moments of clarity or understanding a little too often, also at times too many bad guys, if everyone was this corrupt and secretive the country would cease operating at a very basic level. You start to assume everyone is a liar apart from Harriet and they are, it is a bit predictable, but fun.
