Life of Crime

Life of Crime charts the career progression of Denise Woods, we see the beginning of her career, and get three snapshots from it. In each of the three eras she is motivated by the crimes of one killer.

It's a very smart looking, well produced series, it looks great, it's well written, and very well acted. Hayley Atwell is excellent throughout, we see her go from naive rookie to hardened career driven Detective.

It's interesting, it deals with political and cultural issues, we see how badly Denise is treated at the beginning of her career, to someone that's giving the orders in present day.

Denise isn't always the most likeable of characters, at times she's deplorable, but that makes her human.

It's very good, 8/10.
