From Acorn TV:

Oscar® nominee Rachel Griffiths (Six Feet Under) headlines this cinematic, fast-paced thriller. Detective Grace Gibbs is obsessed with catching the armed robber who killed her partner, while her new trainee (Yoson An, Mortal Engines) blames her for his best friend’s death. The feuding detectives must work together to hunt down a killer who is leaving a trail of broken lives across Sydney.

From Acorn TV you can stream the four episodes of this one-season thriller. Each episode is just under an hour.

Rachel Griffiths, the Australian actress who plays Detective Grace Gibbs, has a very impressive resumé. Possibly you remember her as Brenda Chenowith in “Six Feet Under” way back in  2001.  In “Dead Lucky” her character is a capable,  hard-boiled, curt, demanding woman divorced from a narcotics detective Matt O’Reilly, played by former Australian Rugby League footballer Matt Nable.  Yoson An  as the novice detective Charlie Fung gives a credible performance.

There are too many characters and sub-threads in the plot to be able to discuss them. Suffices to say that all these pieces are important to the plot and atmosphere.  Human interactions are the driving force in the story.

Sustained tension, a suspenseful and satisfying ending all add up to a worthwhile presentation.
