Lovely to watch a South Asian woman shun the out-dated traditional behavior. I was totally annoyed how her white peers and supervisors viewed DI Ray and the minority community using all the usual brainwashed theories. Thus, it was obvious why DI Ray was frustrated with her co-workers and superiors lack of knowledge or understanding of South Asians and Arabs. I truly want to believe that law enforcement has learned through diversity training the falsehoods I witnessed in this series. As for DI Ray's fiance, he was overbearing, pushy, and quite typical of a white male police officer. Her parents were well educated but there was still the hint of old tradition thinking towards their daughter that needs to disappear entirely in today's world. What I witnessed was a serious detective with the type of skills it takes to solve crime who had very little support from her co-workers in the beginning and no support from her superior officers. This series was particularly frustrating since I entered law enforcement when there were few women and absolutely no women of color. Male co-workers were more problematic than criminals. Sad but true.
