A decent finale.

Zen is put in charge of his first case of kidnapping, and it's a high profile case.

It ends with a good, solid episode, I didn't perhaps enjoy this as much as the previous episode, but that was exceptional.

This one has the usual features, a dramatic opening, a quality cast, gorgeous production values, and of course Rufus Sewell's chiselled cheekbones.

The issue I had with this one was the pacing, it ambles along, at a very pedestrian pace, it takes a while to get going, and when you work out who's done it, which you will half way through, you'll be wondering when the resolution will come.

This one does benefit greatly from some moments of humour, Huber makes a nice figure of irritation for Zen.

It's a pity the show ended here, but I'm not surprised. 6/10.
