In Tandem

Murders in... is a collection of French-Belgian police TV movies taking place each time in a different French city and region.

Candice Renoir had put her career on standby for 10 years. When she returns from Singapore to resume service in a port town in the south of France, she feels a bit “rusty”. Despite the obvious defiance of her unit and a cynical superior who doesn’t make her job any easier, she is determined to turn her so-called weaknesses into strengths, solving the most complex cases with her common sense, her acute observation and her practical nature seasoned by a busy daily routine. Only Candice can catch a killer because she knows the chemical composition of a window-cleaning product or determine the hour of a murder from the cooking-time of kebabs… Candice is only naive on the outside, and nobody can resist her!

Thomas Chevalier, a cop with an exemplary career record, finds himself forced to neutralize a man about to attack the new star recruit for the Olympique de Marseille football club. But he accidentally injures the player, putting an end to his Marseille dream before it even starts. Thomas is penalized for his disastrous intervention, and is immediately transferred to the worst possible place for a true Parisian cop who’s to blame for the worst possible thing for his future city: Marseille. Once there, Thomas is put in charge of a unit with unorthodox methods that no one wants to lead. It’s composed of Nora Kader, an uncontrollable cop in every way his opposite, and two deputies, Julio Abdelaoui and Ange Colona, rogue cops with terrible reputations who have already worn out more than one team leader. Thomas and them may not wear the same colors, but they all are cops, and they are going to play on the same team.h!
