اچھی فلم!

Great mystery, and a good progression of Hailey Dean's story. I'm also intrigued with the new overarching plotline of the D. A. and the upcoming parole hearing. I do have a complaint, though. It's the woman's death in the opening. If she's a Marine, then she deserves a better death than begging for her life. She should be fighting tooth and nail to the end.

COULD someone tell me why most of the shows are not up to date with people starring in the shows...Now this one, NCIS and a couple of more are not uptodate on the night of yhe show...This Hallmark Mystery aired 9 days ago and Lauren Holly isn't even listed...how come? LAZINESS... Poor Hollywood...

7/10 - up to traditional Hailey Dean Mysteries standards

This Hailey Dean mystery has our former prosecutor turned therapist investigating thefts on a nearby Marine base. When a Marine investigator is murdered it becomes personal for Fincher who knew the woman and is a former member of the corps. It's quite a tangle of deception that Kellie Martin and Viv Leacock have to work through. And her friend Lauren Holly the DA isn't much help to her in a case that is the military's jurisdiction. The last scene with Martin trying to soothe Leacock down from killing the perpetrator is well done. By Fincher's moral code marines aren't to behave that way. Check this one out.

This time the crimes are more violent but the mystery is more interesting to follow and try to solve. Dean is still an irritating, bossy character but she's always been at her best with Fincher so, since they are investigating these crimes together, she's more bearable to watch. However, I still feel so sorry for the actor playing Jonas' character. He's written as such a dweeb its excruciating and he's a very odd choice to play him also. Scares me!! Some of the writing is a bit better this season but it's still full of excruciating "let's all praise Ms perfect Hailey Dean" dialog and both Jonus and Fincher are stuck with many embarrassing clunker lines. Gosh it's feels like the city would shut down without Dean to take care of everyone and everything. Nancy Grace?? I was interested when Lauren Holly's character suggested to Dean that she wasn't sure that becoming a therapist was really her. I've complained before that we've seen very little evidence of her being a therapist (except when it was pivotal to the plot) and there's not even an attempt to show that side of her career this time which I think works better than just throwing it in here and there for effect. I kinda didn't feel the chemistry at the end.
