Clem and Rowley's relationship is great to read. They don't have the best communication quite yet, but they're continually trying to understand each other better even before becoming a couple. The sex scenes fit the characters and shifted between developing their relationship and showing how it was deepening outside of those sensual moments. The murder mystery is very engaging and the resolution made sense without being too obvious. The stakes are very clear and the antagonists at interesting, I'm looking forward to seeing how the series moves on given how things turned out. The secondary characters don't get nearly as much time as Clem and Rowley (for obvious reasons) but their personalities come through really well and their various reactions to the very stressful circumstances made sense.
