Pointless ending, absolute waste of time. Too many loose ends, don't waste you time on this!!

I give this film a very poor grade not because it was bad but because it seems unfinished. It's like a home renovation in which the contractor walked off the job after doing most of it. The first five episodes were first rate, and it was well on its way to being a very satisfying whodunit. Then it fell off a cliff. It had snappy dialogue, interesting subplots, a murder with a few suspects, and a relatable police detective who seemed intent on solving the mystery and unearthing local corruption. It had a layered feeling, like The Killing, in which the crime leads to suspects at higher and higher levels. But then... nothing.Did the actor who played the police investigator quit the show? How else to explain how he vanished just when key revelations about the crime and local corruption emerged? It's certainly not consistent with his character. Then there's the crusading amateur hellbent on exposing the real killer, who just goes home after solving the crime, knowing that an innocent man remains in prison. It's very abrupt and not consistent with her character. Several other characters behave illogically in the final episodes. The series needed a different ending and/or maybe one more episode to allow the characters to finish what they started.Boo. Hiss.

This gives away some of the story if you haven't seen it.Good acting. Slow at the beginning until the murder takes place. The answer to the murder....it shows you possible scenarios but doesn't tell you definitively did it. Also, MOSAIC....it shows an art store at the end of the series by this name, tied to the murder victim...but doesn't really make the connection as to why the series had this as a title.

At times, confusing and some dialogue just did not make sense and left too many unanswered questions. Not up to the HBO standard.
