This is the third in a series- with (1) Crimson winter (2) Blue Catacomb and (4) Black Enigma. *****Watch them in order as there is a plot line that builds as the series progresses. Gritty (sometimes gruesome, sometimes psychologically disturbing, rare nudity, sexual themes ) but with nuanced and interesting characters. Plot line is well crafted although this episode may be the most far-fetched/least believable of the bunch.
*This episode has some upsetting themes and is not OK for children- be forewarned.
In my view, the characters move from being quirky, even unlikable to human and engaging. The two main characters include a strong (but flawed) female detective with an interest in psychological profiling. The main characters are human and not cardboard and the characters develop over time as does the interaction between the 2 main leads.
Series is great if you like mysteries imbued with psychology. The major and minor characters are intriguing and guard their mysteries. The scenes of police questioning the characters are artfully and creatively done.
This series is worth a try, especially if you like films and series in Paris, are unable to visit just now, and long to savor the streets of Paris and Paris life.
