A Taste for Murder review: This picturesque new crime drama is in danger of losing its flavour
Joe joins local murder probes on Capri after a family break turns into a paid consulting role by episode three, ITV said.
- Met Police detective DCI Joe Mottram travels to the island of Capri, Italy, in the ITV crime drama A Taste for Murder, seeking respite following the death of his wife, Sofia.
- Employing a Death in Paradise template, the series places a fish-out-of-water detective in a picturesque location while using English-speaking actors despite the Italian setting and cast.
- Incorporating cooking themes, the show pairs police work with culinary scenes as Inspector Lara Sarrancino works alongside Joe. "I'm starting to think you're a jinx," Sarrancino says.
- Darker narrative elements emerge, including potential involvement from the Cosa Nostra, drug trafficking, and protection rackets originating from the nearby bay of Naples.
- Personal stakes persist as Joe's daughter, Angelica , grows close to a local involved in the pill trade, while the mystery surrounding his wife's fatal hit-and-run remains.
