Small in scope but smart in the way it deals with how cosy communities react when something rotten surfaces in their world.
Derek Adams, Time Out
Overview
Small-town detective Noah Cordin is called to solve a juvenile homicide that occurred during a home burglary in his affluent town of Hilliard. The dead boy's mother, Allison Connor, is a member of the Meskada County Board of Commissioners, and a powerful woman in Hilliard; and the entire township rallies together in solidarity - to support her and Detective Cordin's efforts to find the killers.

Good but perhaps not good enough, "Meskada" can be thought of as solid letter-grade-B work.
