What to Expect

PremiereLens read

Astrid et Raphaëlle treats murder investigations as puzzles assembled from old files, numbers and easily overlooked details. Astrid’s knack for spotting patterns gives the cases their satisfying turns, as apparently minor clues open up new lines of inquiry. These self-contained mysteries move at a steady pace through Paris, with violence mostly kept off to the side and a tone more curious than grim.

Astrid and Raphaëlle’s growing friendship brings warmth to the police work. The autistic archivist and young captain are very different people, but their partnership develops through learning to rely on each other. Individual cases reach their own conclusions while that trust continues to grow, giving the series a personal thread beyond the solution to each murder.
