The story is a deep dive in to a murder of a French film producer in West Cork Ireland. It dwells mainly on the main subject, and what happened that night. For me it could have been a few less episodes

Not enough story to make 12 episodes out of.

He was an arrogant and abusive man, highly unlikeable, but there’s no proof he did anything.
Sophie deserved justice, and sadly, like so many victims, never got any.
I saw the tv show about this years ago. Nothing is really added here, but it’s a well made podcast.
