**Update June '21 ** Even the most diehard fans of this series are still shaking their heads about the bizarre plot twists in S03. A season which took a genuinely hi-end police procedural and made a sharp right turn onto a path that only Stephen King would cherish. New viewers are advised to SKIP SEASON 3. At the time of this update it is unclear if there will be a S04, mainly because the main character was murdered at the end of S03 and the co-star quit. Still, the writers of this series clearly consider themselves not to be bound by the conventional rules of scripting. So, anything is possible...?

Original review:

In an age of forced diversity when being different is almost a crime, this show pops. Tomer Sisley brings to mind (for those of a certain age) the "Kojac" vibe, where the detective is even more interesting than the crime. Great production values, a great watch.
