Murphy is a flawed and irreverent woman who just happens to be blind and is the only “witness” to the murder of her drug-dealing friend, Tyson.

"The storyline was plausible for about two minutes and then veered into a couple of off-kilter details ... then wandered into stranger and fantastical details..."
In the Dark was broadcast weekly (Saturday nights, IIRC) by KQED in San Francisco, and I had the same reaction to essentially all episodes: great production values, compelling initial narrative... then devolution into annoyingly unlikely twists, as if he had navigated a bunch of one-way streets into a dead end. And kept driving anyway. The sheer waste would anger me; I had to stop listening altogether.
