Prime Suspect

CriticsCritics: 95
AudienceAudience: 8.1

A highly skilled female detective takes charge of a difficult murder investigation in London, where she must build a case while facing hostility from colleagues in a male-dominated police department. As the inquiry deepens, its demands begin to affect her personal life and professional standing.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy intense, character-driven British police dramas such as Inspector Morse, but Not for you if you prefer lighter mysteries or fast, technology-focused investigations.
