We’re back in mystery territory again (and a callback one at that). But we’ve very much eased into it. If I chose one word to describe this series’ narrative style it would be “languid”. The plot rarely crashes like a wave; it flows like a river. It gets there when it gets there. That’s a …
Master Roshi Needs our Help
