Motive background

Motive

Vancouver homicide detective relentlessly pursues cunning killers, uncovering unexpected motives behind gruesome crimes.

Vancouver-based detectives and the Coroner's office work together to solve a murder that has just occurred. The victim and killer are revealed at the start of each episode, and the detectives must analyze the evidence to uncover the motive behind the crime. Often, the motive isn't clear until the killer is caught. One of the detectives, Angie Flynn, balances her work as a homicide investigator with raising her son Manny on her own.
