You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a dark, cross-border manhunt with a strong odd-couple partnership and moral questions, in the vein of The Following or Killing Eve; Not for you if you dislike grim violence or slow-burn pacing.

Pros: gripping cross-border mystery; strong lead duo; tense, twisty cases | Cons: can feel slow; some confusing subplots; uneven later seasons
