It falls into the "cozy crime" zone rather than the "hard-hitting and gritty" department on the basis that the personal relationships between characters and their small town concerns are given star billing alongside the crimes but make no mistake the latter are far from misdemeanors.

As the tagline has it: "Every town harbors secrets."
