    good first season
    Vegas card dealer Zoe Busiek (Joely Fisher) moves to take care of her nieces and nephew after her single sister's car crash death. She struggles to be their new parental figure rather than their usual cool aunt. Insurance refuses to pay claiming that her sister was at fault. She investigates the case herself. When she uncovers fraud, the insurance company hires her as an investigator. In the first season, she works with Dan Lennox and Sophie Mason. In the second season, Sophie is gone and the company is bought by M. Pearl McGuire.

    The first season is surprisingly good. I expected another second tier show from Canada. The insurance angle is different enough to make this a new procedural idea. It's really Joely Fisher who makes this work. I actually like the two love triangles that develop. The adult triangle has a dull third angle but the teenage triangle gives off plenty of heat and drama. All that goes away for the second season. It tries to be a buddy cop show. At least, they kept the kids but it's a step down and the show ends after two seasons.
