Although the series did not have supernatural aspects or plotline, the heavy reliance on the theme of the wyvern was a little overdone. This could simply have been a normal revenge story but I guess the writers wanted to invent something original and fell on this.
Paul Pratt has a past full of emotional baggage and suppressed memories. This is why he left for Paris. His back story surges to the surface in this four-part miniseries. At the same time as working out the murders, he is working on dealing with his past too.
There are some weirdo characters in this small town. The chief of police, the ex girlfriend, the sister-in-law, even the father.
The series was heavily clue laden. In fact, it was so much so that the viewer simply knew for sure that the person we were being invited to assume was the new suspect could not possibly be one and had to be innocent. Nonetheless, it was not a shock to find out who the real murderer was as it was being strongly flagged in the fourth episode and there was no time for another false trail.
The locations are rather stunning, both the village and the river, waterfall and caves.
TV5Monde's subtitle agency did a fair job of the translation but there were some jarring mistakes and very annoying case errors. In general though, I'd have been hard put to improve most of it.
I watched this in the space of 24 hours and genuinely wanted to find out who did it. It definitely whiled away a few lockdown hours.
