    Sounds familiar whichever country you live in
    A maverick reporter tries to expose wrong doing in very high places but the system springs into action to prevent her. It is a very well acted drama which often feels so real it begins to resemble a reconstruction or documentary. The actual corruption is barely covered as most of the series is the reporter played by Ryoko Yonekura trying to unearth the facts and the establishment trying to cover them up. It also shows that it is often the good people with a conscience who suffer whilst the powerful and corrupt seem immune, which if you look at recent history appears to be true.
