Synopsis

Adapted from Law & Order: Criminal Intent (French: New York section criminelle),^[1] it follows the investigations of two police detectives with very different methods of investigation. Vincent Revel (Vincent Pérez) is very intuitive, while his partner, Claire Savigny (Sandrine Rigaux), is more logical. The first season's episodes were adapted from episodes of the first season of Criminal Intent. This French adaptation of the Law & Order franchise is the only one not to use the voice-over introduction and the title cards between scene changes. Both the other international versions (Russian and British) use these icons.

The show was renewed for a third season, which began broadcasting on November 6, 2008. Claire Savigny was replaced by Mélanie Rousseau, played by Audrey Looten.
