6/10
Too many dumb moves

Warning: Spoilers
First of all the show is nothing like the way it is described. The police didn't drag the photographer into anything. He asked if the photographer would help him and that was the end of it. It led to nowhere the main plot. The lead detective was an idiot but wasn't intended to appear that way. He took one person into custody and later found him dead in his cell. He believed he had been murdered. He later got a fuller picture of what was going on and knew that there was an organization looking to kill an American he had just arrested. But what does he do to protect him? He puts him in the same cell by himself and without a guard. So, there was no surprise to anyone with a brain that he was a dead man. Everyone, except the lead detective. A woman is kidnapped on the street within hearing and eyesight. He was oblivious. And he needs to work out his theories with his wife who seems to understand more than her husband.

The male lead starts out as someone you can like but as the series goes on, he becomes somewhat of a villain in my opinion. And his thought process is off too. An organization is killing people to get a book that had been stolen. The male lead accidentally possesses the book they want. Instead of turning it over to the police he tells someone to destroy it. This makes no sense. Why would anyone in the organization believe him when he says it is destroyed? If they did believe him, they would be pissed that he destroyed it. So, they would still want him dead. If he turned over to the police, the organization would learn that the police have it and would be less likely to go after him.

It was kinda a dumb series.
