Death and Other Details starts off promisingly enough. Mandy Patinkin is the plummy voiced Detective Rufus Cotesworth. His opening words ar details matter.

Some years earlier he came to the life of a little girl Imogene whose mother had been blown up in the car she was in. He promised that he would catch her mother's killer.

Many years later there lives collide on a luxury cruise. Rufus is now viewed as a has been. Imogene is bitter towards him. He never did find her mother's killer

She has grown up with the wealthy Collier family. They took Imogene in after her mother's death who used to work for them.

In this cruise where the Colliers hoped to seal a major investment deal. Keith Trubitsky a loud arrogant businessman is found dead.

Both Rufus and Imogene join up to find out who did it.

Death and Other Details looks like a part murder mystery and part pastiche of Agatha Christie type thrillers. If it was not for Patinkin I doubt I would last the full voyage of 10 episodes. Even from the first episode I can see this hitting choppy waters very soon.
