Detective Drama Grace In The Works At CBS From DeVon Franklin As
Producer Reups Overall Deal With CBS Studios  (March 15)

 

https://deadline.com/2024/03/detective-drama-grace-cbs-devon-franklin-renews-overall-deal-cbs-studios-1235859543/

 

["Grace follows a true-blue detective known for his brash, cynical style
and a passionate, community-focused pastor who wears her heart on her
sleeve reluctantly partner to solve complex crimes as they debate their
divergent beliefs while attempting to ignore their growing chemistry."]

 

Why is a pastor going to be involved in solving crimes? I could see it
if the crime involved a member of her church but beyond that?

 It takes a social worker to solve crime, shawn. Police are ill equipped.
 Also, the detective is haunted HAUNTED by a tragedy in his past, or she
is, or both.
 

If it's based on the Inspector Grace books, which the UK series is, his wife mysteriously disappeared a few years before. However, that isn't this show. If you have the chance to see the British Grace on PBS or somewhere, do so, it's pretty good.
