characters

  • Chloé Saint-Laurent: She is a criminologist and a psychologist. Her empathy helps her to create profiles of victims and perpetrators. In her childhood, her mother was killed by her father while she was secretly leaving home. Grégoire Lamarck was the first police officer on the scene and from then on he stood by her, so that he became a kind of father substitute. In the first season she meets Matthieu Pérac's team as a consultant, who over time fought for her important role more and more. Only when he found out about her family history did their relationship improve. After Pérac's death, she takes a break for the time being, but then comes back to the team, which is now led by Thomas Rocher. At first she doesn't really like him, but gradually they get along better, so that Chloé tries to kiss him in the 9th episode of the fourth season, which is blamed on her confusion. At the beginning of the seventh season she moved to the UN in New York City .
  • Adèle Delettre: She appears for the first time in season 4, episode 11, when three criminology students do an internship in the police station. The trained criminologist is severely traumatized because she and her twin sister were kidnapped by a man named Argos and held captive for years. Since she managed to escape, she lived very secluded and avoided any contact with other people. Chloé manages to get her out of her isolation and Adèle occasionally appears as a minor character in the following years. Later she works as a private detective. After Chloé goes to New York, Adèle helps the police investigate and eventually takes Chloé's place on the investigative team. She lives on a houseboat and is the guardian of the son of her twin sister Camille.
  • Matthieu Pérac: He's skeptical about Chloé and her job. Pérac doesn't want to understand criminals, he just wants to arrest them. But over time they get along better and become friends after learning of Chloé's past. In the 6th episode of the second season, Pérac separates from his wife Delphine because she is having an affair. In the last episode of the second season he is murdered by Chloé's fake sister Louise.
  • Thomas Rocher: He is the successor to Matthieu Pérac and will be there from the third season. He is silent, authoritarian and places little value on politeness. Rocher is widowed and has a son, Lucas, and a sister, Elisa. His wife died in a hit and run car accident. After the death of his wife he was no longer the same and had even beaten his old boss. He was fired, but Lamarck took him on to the team. He finds his wife's murderer in the sixth episode of the third season. In the 9th episode of the third season he has to fight for custody of his son, which his in-laws had requested, but in the 10th episode he learns that he can keep it. He has a friendly relationship with Chloé, which, however, gets mixed up briefly due to Chloé's strange behavior and the attempt at kissing in season 4, episode 9. The two then talk and understand each other again as before.
  • Grégoire Lamarck: He's the head of the team's department. He was the policeman who took care of Chloé after the Saint-Laurents family tragedy. He brought her in to support the team because he trusts her very much. In episodes 11 and 12 of the fourth season you learn about his relationship with Laure Brévin, who was murdered in the 11th episode. This is the main suspect and comes into custody. Lamarck's wife tells Chloé that he had a relationship with her mother, which later turns out to be a lie. In the fourth season, however, it comes out that Chloé's mother is still alive and he has covered her. After telling Chloé this, he is shot and taken to the hospital.
  • Frédérique "Fred" Kancel: The homicide detective is a dry alcoholic and nobody wanted to hire her until Lamarck accepted her into the team. Fred was initially skeptical about Chloé, but at the latest after her return after Pérac's death, she trusted her and the two have a friendly relationship. Fred has a daughter who she had when she was 15 and gave away because she was too young. This reappears in season 6. Fred has a sister Jessica who appears in Season 4. After Fred's colleague and good friend Hippolyte de Courtène approaches her sister at a party, she is mad at him. When he asks her why, she kisses him, but then explains that she did it out of affect. After Hippolyte kisses her again shortly afterwards, the two have a relationship, but split up again in season 4, episode 12, because Fred doesn't think he can give him what he wants. Fred is kidnapped and killed by serial killer Roze at the end of Season 5.
  • Hippolyte de Courtène: He is the computer and technology expert . The team receives information from him for investigations and field operations. He used to be a hacker and if Lamarck hadn't got him on the team, he would have ended up in jail. He is the only one on the team who is friendly towards Chloé from the start. He comes from a wealthy family and often feels like an outsider because his father is not proud of what he has achieved. He has two brothers and a sister, and a son with Jessica, Fred's sister. He's gotten closer to Fred's sister before, and from that came the relationship between him and Fred, which lasts from the beginning to the end of the fourth season. After Fred's death, his life falls apart and he begins to use drugs. With the help of Fred's daughter Emma and Chloé, he manages to overcome the addiction.
  • Le / La Doc Doc: Le Doc is the coroner and forensic scientist for the Paris police in seasons 1 and 2. From season 3, these positions will be filled by Bérénice, also known as La Doc.
  • Jessica Kancel: She is the little sister of Fred Kancel and has a son with Hippolyte. In season 7 she becomes the new secretary of the police station and lives with Adèle on their houseboat. She saves the life of Adele's sister's child.
  • Antoine Garrel: He made several appearances in seasons 3, 4, 6, 7. Garrel is the chief inspector and worked as an undercover agent for 10 years. Then he took over the team management of the drug department. During his tenure, the inexplicable murders of drug dealers increased. Chloé has an affair with him. On the one hand she is fascinated by him as a man, he triggers erotic dreams in her, on the other hand she also feels the danger of Garrel. She finds out that he is behind the dealer murders to avenge his brother. When Garrel was nine years old in 1983, his older brother died of an overdose. He became a police officer in order to avenge him. In season 4 he makes an appointment with Chloé and offers her and her foster daughter Lili to take him abroad. He is killed in the sixth season and shortly afterwards Chloé finds out in the seventh season that she is expecting a child from him. Garrel is played by Benjamin Baroche.
  • Emma Tomasi: She's Fred's daughter, also a police officer, and appears in season 6 after her mother's death. From season 7 she is part of the team of investigators, in which she takes the place of her mother. Disguised as Catwoman, she has a brief affair with Hippolyte.
  • Louise Drancourt: She appears in season 2 in episodes 7 to 12 and claims to be Chloé's sister. It turns out, however, that she is just a mentally unstable patient who has only talked herself into the family connections and manipulated people around her. In the 12th episode of season 2, she murdered Matthieu Pérac. Chloé is haunted by traumatic memories of her. In season 5, she makes another appearance where she is transferred from the psychiatric ward to a prison.

Special

The sixth episode in season 4, titled Reincarnation, takes place in two different times - 1945 and 2013. It gives the impression that Chloé Saint-Laurent and Thomas Rocher lived in both times. In addition, the episode deals with the supernatural implied in the title , but without resolving whether it is actually a supernatural phenomenon, even if some film effects indicate it.
