Well, I wish I had looked at imdbs rating for this drama before I started watching it and I would have saved several hours of my life. It's very average at best. There's nothing wrong with the individual actors, it's just not very well written, so they struggle from a get-go. I actually thought that this was going to be a bit of a comedy with 3 meddling, middle-aged ladies, pretending to be detectives. For a family who was supposedly close with three brothers in a business they have a huge amount of secrets that suddenly come out of the woodwork , just not very believable!!!!!

The only thing that saves this are the beautiful landscapes of Malta.

I've watched quite a few of these made for TV movies over the last few months . Some were so bad I turned them off after 30 minutes, some were okay, some were quite good but forgettable. This however is an excellent movie . Although the story line isn't necessarily original and is slightly cliché, the acting is really good all across the board and the script is good. The main characters steal the show and have a wonderful natural chemistry. The humour is great; Brennan Elliot is a natural. The goats steal the deal for me!! I'm waiting to watch the sequel in a few minutes. A lovely way to enjoy a relaxed afternoon!
