One of my favorite detective shows!

I am a huge crime / mystery fan, and this show blew me away. Every episode drew me in deeper, and I couldn't stop watching. The writing was absolutely perfect and the casting couldn't have been better.

You think you are starting to understand what's going on, and every time there are twists. It's such a complicated plot that is so perfectly laid out and satisfying to see revealed. It is a very dark subject matter (murder, wrongful death, corruption) but it's treated in such a way that you have hope for the world. I LOVED the main two detectives, and their entire Violent Crimes unit, as they battled evil with such pure hearts and strong wills. The intellectual battle between the young detective and his evil cousin added another layer of intrigue along with some badass fighting.

There's even the perfect amount of romance... I wanted it to happen so badly, because those two are just so gorgeous and clearly flirtatious. Even the slightest acknowledgement of romance felt like enough for me.

It's heartwarming, gripping, soulful, upsetting, and powerful. Strongly recommend.
