Détective Surprenant

Détective Surprenant: The girl with the stone eyes

Written by Marie-Ève Bourassa and Maureen Martineau, and based on the detective novels by Jean Lemieux, the series Détective Surprenant, directed by Yannick Savard, was produced in 2023. Detective Sergeant André Surprenant takes charge of reporting the disappearance of Rosalie Richard, daughter of the mayor of Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine, even if this forces him to cancel his vacation, a few hours before his departure. The teenager’s body is found the next day in a sordid scene that sets the entire village in turmoil.

Accustomed to investigating road accidents and minor crimes, the Cap-aux-Meules police officers are overwhelmed by the violence of the crime. Surprenant, who worked in major crimes in Montréal, leads his inexperienced team with tact. However, he learns that the investigation is entrusted to chief inspector Sébastien Gingras, an arrogant rival dispatched from Québec City. Tension quickly rises between the two men as the investigation becomes more complex and the list of suspects grows. Fortunately, Surprenant can count on his colleague, Geneviève Savoie, to help him elucidate the murder.
