Will Trent (Ramon Rodriguez) is an investigator for the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. He is called in on difficult or high-profile cases. Often he has to work with the Atlanta Police Department, but few of his associates like him. One reason is he's an odd duck, different from other people. And his social skills are suspect.
Still, he has a few friends. Like Betty, the homeless dog he took in. And undercover agent Angie (Erika Christensen), with whom he shares a dark history.
The tone of this drama is often noir-ish, but it never gets too dark. And the incidental music helps with its stylish atmosphere.
Trent is dyslexic, but he can read a crime scene like no one else. He carries scars and demons as a result of his checkered history, but he copes. When he is assigned a partner, Faith (Ianatha Richardson) of the APD, they have to learn to cooperate and overcome their personality differences.
This police procedural is very engaging, because of both the acting and the storylines. All of the main players are fun to watch. The writing can be fast-moving, but the stories are never dull. I am hoping the series can keep its edge while simultaneously developing the main characters.
