A good start but it became apparent that this was really two unconnected plots shoehorned together. I note from the credits it was based on two books and this seemed to come through quite clearly in the TV adaptation.
In the end the show dabbled with some supernatural elements but never had the courage to develop them or the writing to develop plot points that otherwise stretched all credulity. The suspension of disbelief was overcome by a sense of annoyance & the ending was an unsatisfactory cop out with both plot lines left with significant gaps. It was atmospheric & technically well put together but ultimately the writing wasn't strong enough. There were also far too many flashbacks which became intrusive & seemed like unnecessary padding.
