Programme Overview
Description
A man’s body is languishing for five years in an underwater ghost town awaiting justice. The corpse of a woman that uncovers a link to diamond smugglers and terrorists is washed away at sea. A deadly high-tech bomb, hidden inside a state –of-the-art public aquarium, is endangering the lives of hundreds of schoolchildren.
These are cases only the Deep Crime Unit can solve. The DCU is the Japanese Coast Guard’s first specialized elite diving squad – a group of highly skilled SCUBA experts who are also cops and forensic specialists. And, just like the turbulent waters of the ocean, there is much more going on under the surface than meets the eye.
This ensemble crime drama amplifies the suspense of land-based cop shows, adding the life-and-death nature of deep diving to the heightened emotions you’d expect from an all-action police procedural. And while the team is super-adapt at dealing with criminals, battling their own demons might tear them apart.
