When John ‘Ludwig' Taylor's identical twin, DCI James Taylor, disappears off the face of the earth, John takes over his brother's identity in a quest to discover his whereabouts. John has never married; never had a family and never really ventured further than his own front door. Without a computer, mobile phone or even a television, he lives in quiet solitude, designing puzzles for a living, under the nom-de-plume of ‘Ludwig'.This genre bending detective series follows full-time luddite, John 'Ludwig' Taylor, as he assumes the identity of his missing twin brother in a bid to track him down and bring him home. However, filling the shoes of your identical twin is one thing - when your twin also happens to be a successful DCI leading Cambridge's busy inner-city major crimes team the stakes are much higher. John may be a master of all things cryptic, but can he crack the biggest puzzle of his life? |

Witty, quirky, brilliant writing and stellar acting!!! This is my new absolute favorite detective series!!! May it run many seasons!
Based on this excellent review, I am in! Thanks!
I found this series quite enjoyable. I always like a show that can take me by surprise.
Very light hearted and entertaining
A truly pleasant watch - clever and often funny. If you enjoy dry humour, David Mitchell Style and the sharp wit of Anna Maxwell Martin, this is for you! Looking forward to next series… well hope so anyway.
