Meurtres à l'Abbaye de Rouen

If you have not watched many of the shows in this series, you may like this one. If you have watched more, you'll realize that this is a show made of conventions from this series (no spoilers): detective is estranged from family but returns to home town to work, runs into ex, finds out family member is involved in the crime.

That in itself is not the basis for my somewhat negative review. The show was full of unlikeable people. The storyline was ok. The acting was ok. It just could not hold my interest and I had to go back to it over three nights to finish it.

Two things I did appreciate about this show: the subject of art as a valuable and important concern, and, of course, the stunning scenery and photography, especially the night shots of the church with its gates.

I watched this show on a streaming service called Hoopla which shows many of the MhZ network shows. It is a service you get through your public library and watch on a Roku or on your computer. Ask at your library if they have the service. Another fantastic show I watched on Hoopla was Captain Marleau. Please ignore the goofy art they put on the show title!
