Detective Cooper Devereaux Reeks

Duik in een grimmige misdaadserie rond een complexe detective wiens eigen turbulente verleden zijn meedogenloze zoektocht naar gerechtigheid aanwakkert. Elke aflevering is een wanhopige race tegen de klok, waarbij de grenzen tussen goed en kwaad vervagen terwijl de protagonist schrijnende zaken aanpakt. Gekweld door persoonlijke demonen en opererend onder een wolk van argwaan, navigeert hij door een verraderlijk landschap van corruptie en morele ambiguïteit. Deze serie biedt een duistere, meeslepende kijk op de psychologische tol van misdaadbestrijding en de ongrijpbare aard van de waarheid.

A woman disappears on her twenty-first birthday. The following day her body is found, wrapped neatly like a gift in a crumbling, sun-speckled graveyard. What does Detective Devereaux have to go on? Very little. No motive, no suspects. Then another victim is discovered in a crematorium parking lot. Again, she was killed on her twenty-first birthday. Again, her body was wrapped like a gift. By the third murder the tabloids have dubbed the homicidal monster the Birthday Killer—and Devereaux is under the gun.
