Introduced in the closing chapter of Bosch: Legacy, another character from Michael Connelly‘s trove of gritty bestsellers takes center stage in a solid spinoff: Renée Ballard (Nikita‘s Maggie Q), an LAPD detective who’s been sidelined to an underfunded cold-case unit after accusing a colleague of sexual assault. With only volunteers, interns and Reserve officers to assist, Ballard battles bureaucracy when an investigation into an unsolved John Doe murder reveals layers of police corruption. Another priority: finding a serial killer whose victims include the sister of an influential councilman. The retired Harry Bosch (Titus Welliver), experienced at clashing with top brass, appears in several episodes to help Ballard at pivotal times. But this is her show, and Maggie Q makes the most of it. All 10 episodes are available for binge-watching.
