About
"Comfort-food mystery with easy romantic chemistry"
A former pro hockey player, freshly divorced and adrift, stumbles into partnership with a sharp-tongued private investigator running her father's agency. Together they take on a new case each episode, trading barbs while chasing down cheating spouses, corporate thieves, and the occasional murder. It's breezy, case-of-the-week television with a will-they-won't-they spark at its center, more comfort food than edge-of-seat thriller. The mysteries rarely get too dark, the leads have easy chemistry, and episodes wrap up neatly. Think procedural mystery crossed with rom-com banter, low stakes but high charm.
Watch it for
the breezy chemistry between its two mismatched leads carries every case.
Maybe skip if
you want dark, twisty mysteries rather than light episodic comfort viewing.
