Coppers plot

In an ideal world, law and justice are synonyms. A criminal commits a crime against a victim and justice ensures that the scales are rebalanced. The criminal receives his deserved punishment and the victim is compensated as much as possible for the suffering suffered. Unfortunately, the reality is different. After all, it is not for nothing that justice has been wearing a blindfold for centuries. Major fraudsters go free while small shrimps are dealt with harshly. Offenders are released through procedural errors while victims are left out in the cold. Sometimes the law can be very unjust. Commissioner Lise Meerhout, of the aggression cell of the federal judicial police, is going in search of justice.

Coppers season 1

Not so long ago I read all the books of the Liese Meerhout series by Coppers. Very good and certainly better than this film adaptation. It already starts with the title: the name of the writer instead of that of the protagonist. Of course, the stories of the books do not have to match those of this season, but 45 minutes is very short to film a book. Then a red thread story is made up through all thirteen episodes that also takes some time per episode; what then remains? At least not the depth of the books. The characters from the books also differ considerably, which also applies to their personal circumstances. Despite the major differences, a series is still created that, as the episodes progress, becomes more and more fascinating. Fair on average, but doesn't come close to similar Scandinavian crime series.
