The Art of Crime
Overview
After being dismissed for insubordination, PJ Antoine Verlay, a talented but unconventional cop, finds himself reassigned to the OCBC, the Central Office for the Fight Against Trafficking in Cultural Goods. His friend, Commander Pardo, now his superior, hopes to rein in Antoine’s rebellious nature. Lacking cultural knowledge, Antoine must team up with Florence Chassagne, a passionate art historian. Florence’s deep immersion in culture often leads her to daydream conversations with long-gone artists, adding a surreal twist to their investigations as they navigate the complexities of art crime together.
