Acceptable Risk (2017)
A complex, intense murder mystery that starts slow and builds steadily. Great for binge watching.

The first episode of this Irish TV show gives very little indication of where it is going. It begins slowly with a family tragedy, the random murder of Sarah Manning's husband, Lee, in Montreal.
The series shifts its focus to the investigation of Lee's murder, which draws covert international interest. Sarah takes a central role in the investigation. She and the others involved face constant obstacles in their search for truth and justice as the investigation leads them ever deeper into a web of intrigue and corruption. I could not stop watching it until I had reached the conclusion.
This series is unusual in that most of the main characters are strong women who have found success in tough, male-dominated professions.
