Unusual crime miniseries based on a novel by Stuart Woods. While it is a crime story that starts in 1924, it concludes in 1962. In that period of time chiefs of the Delano Police come and go, but the serial killer in the area is still active and keeps avoiding being caught. But apart from the main story there are subplots that tell more about the reality of early 20th century in Georgia, where law enforcement was existing alongside deeper problems within society, like racism and its extreme form, the Ku Klux Klan. This series is not the greatest in history by any means, it is rather slow, the story lacks what would keep modern audience invested, but with cast full of well established actors (Charlton Heston, Paul Sorvino, Danny Glover, John Goodman, Keith Carradine) and with unique approach to a crime story it is worth to take a look.
