Booted off the Paris police force for insubordination, Antoine Verlay (Nicolas Gob) is transferred to a government task force fighting the illegal trafficking of cultural artifacts. A hothead and keen investigator, he teams up with Florence Chassagne (Eleonore Bernheim), a renowned art historian at the Louvre. As Antoine and Florence solve a series of modern-day crimes that take place in France’s storied museums and landmarks, they unveil some of the great mysteries of the country’s cultural and historical heritage. Showrunners Angèle Herry-Leclerc and Pierre-Yves Mora (co-writers on Boulevard du Palais and Julie Lescaut) clearly have fun displaying both the art of crime and the creative process in this suspenseful, humorous, highly entertaining crime-fighting caper. Costarring Leonardo da Vinci, Jean-Antoine Watteau, Artemisia Gentileschi and Théodore Guéricault.
