Fairly mediocre crime drama. Each episode follows the same formula of the detectives being led from one witness/suspect to the next, being told their story without much input, which leads to the next witness/suspect, until eventually they catch the right person.

Season 3 finds Max and Layla investigating the discovery of an ex-soldier’s body in an allotment, the brutal murder of an antiques dealer, and the mysterious case of a climate scientist found dead in a stolen car. But, while Max remains adept at solving crimes, things are far from straightforward at home.
