The location seems impervious to crime and yet it's the perfect backdrop to thoughtful and complex plots. Borchert is seasoned, cynical and driven by truth and justice. He has a dark side that makes him empathetic to understand human motivation. Even in tailored suits, he looks disreputable enough to talk to seedier compatriots. Dominique is a lawyer, daughter of Borchert's best friend and finds more in common with the unorthodox Borchert than with her society lawyer father. Her love interest is a crime inspector. The three in uneven interaction solve crimes with multiple strands. Moderately paced, little violence, thankfully lacking the hyped tension and violence of many American shows, this show is a great view with a glass of red wine.
