RURAL CRIME
THREE PINES Prime Video, from Friday, December 2
THERE are shades of Twin Peaks in this new crime drama based on Louise Penny’s series of novels – but without the out-and-out weirdness. Alfred Molina plays grouchy, seenit-all chief inspector Armand Gamanche investigating a spate of murders in a seemingly idyllic village in rural Quebec. Unsurprisingly, it turns out that beneath the surface, Three Pines is riddled with problems and secrets which all feed into the investigation – as do Gamanche’s own issues.
