Based on Agatha Christie’s 1929 novel “The Seven Dials Mystery” and adapted for television by Chris Chibnall (of “Broadchurch” fame), Netflix’s “Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials” is a solid murder-mystery offering a peek into 20th-century aristocracy, centered on a plucky antagonist. While the series isn’t as thrilling as viewers may hope, the engaging performances and several of the less trite twists and turns work well enough.
