content
Detective Chief Inspector (later Detective Superintendent ) Jane Tennison is a police officer who not only has to grapple with criminal cases of pedophilia , child abuse and prostitution , but also has to fight off the sexism and prejudice of her colleagues and superiors. It is not uncommon for her to act against the express instructions of her superiors, even if she is threatened with serious consequences.
The investigator's private life suffers from work: a relationship hardly lasts beyond an episode and the distance to the family increases. As the series progresses, she can only endure the demands of the job thanks to excessive alcohol consumption , but in the end she realizes the need to seek help in this regard. In order not to endanger her career , she also decides to have an abortion . Investigations do not always end with an arrest. Even if Tennison solves the cases, she cannot always obtain convictions. At the end of a season, she repeatedly considers leaving the department or being transferred. In the end, relationships with her last relatives break up, her only confidante is killed and she retires.
