MYSTERY | GERMANY | GERMAN WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES | TV-14
Inspector Mehmet Özakin is a by-the-book cop in Istanbul, constantly fighting a battle on two fronts: against the criminals in the city of 15 million on the one hand, and against the bureaucratic laziness of his fellow countrymen on the other.
