Actor Audrey Fleurot (Spiral, COLCOA TV Series Award, 2015) stars as Morgane Alvaro, an intractable cleaning lady and single mother of three small kids, who happens to have an IQ of 160. After accidentally knocking over a stack of evidence while cleaning police offices — and outsmarting the entire detective unit — Morgane is recruited to join them. The only problem is she hates cops… and doesn’t take too well to any kind of rules or authority. But she has her own quid pro quo strategy in mind!
This upbeat detective series was created by a triumvirate of experienced TV series writers. Alice Chegaray-Breugnot was a writer on Le juge est une femme (2010-13) and Mes amies, mes amours, mes emmerdes (2015), and a co-creator of La Mante (2017). Stéphane Carrié was a writer on R.I.S. Police scientifique (2008-10), Profilage (2010-14), Spiral (2017), and Candice Renoir (2020). Nicolas Jean, whose idea the series is based upon, was a writer on Second Chance (2009) and Tomorrow is Ours (2017-21), and co-creator of La Mante (2017) and Impatients (2018). Vincent Jamain (Balthazar) and Laurent Tuel (Children’s Play, Jean-Philippe) have joined their talents to direct the most popular series in France this year.
