Meurtres à Mulhouse

The mutilated corpse of a woman has been found in a potash mine near Mulhouse. The victim, the companion of the lawyer Emilie Kern was making jogging in this area. The gendarmerie lieutenant Sandra Bauer and her colleague Laurent Bourbon investigate about the private and the professional life of the victim. Then in a mine gallery another mutilated corpse has been found. Is this secnd murder connected with the first murder ? And is there any relationship with the disappearance of the nephew of Sandra Bauer three years ago.

A quite interesting murder investigation with a good cast: Mélanie Maudran, François-David Cardonnel, Nicolass Van Beveren, Madi Belem, Natalia Dontcheva, Aurore Erguy, Charlotte Valandrey and Erick Deshors.

With a good plot, decent acting and beautiful scenery, this should have been a good show. I found most of the characters unlikeable, so did not develop the caring, the investment that I might have. Also, I don't believe a police detective would be allowed to investigate the lawyer who ruined her custody hopes and for whom her brother works.

The shining light in this episode is actor Willy Rovelli who plays Jasper the medical examiner. Is playing slightly gay considered politically incorrect now or inclusive? Anyway, he was sweet, animated and delightful. He wore those flowered shirts we used to wear as hippies and I loved them. I suppose if I was mulling over my fashion history, you could say I wasn't invested in the drama.

I watched this show on a streaming service called Hoopla which shows many of the MhZ network shows. It is a service you get through your public library and watch on a Roku or on your computer. Ask at your library if they have the service. Another fantastic show I watched on Hoopla was Captain Marleau. Please ignore the goofy art they put on the show title!
