Rizzoli & Isles (2010)
The series begins with the sudden and mysterious death of a customer in a cafe full of mustaches. By chance, a hungry policeman comes to the cafe. From here begins a series of actions that try to detect the hypothetical murderer whose identity is only gradually emerging. The main characters in the film are police detective Jane Rizzoli and the doctor examining the bodies, Dr. Maura Isles. By combining the two names, the title of the film was obtained. The series was originally inspired by the suspenseful short story “The Surgeon” written by Tess Geritsen and published in 2001. A serial killer haunts the streets of Boston, USA, frightening the population, like a Jack-the- Modern reaper. He systematically tortures and kills vulnerable women, hence the nickname “surgeon” in the title of the short story. So far the theme is similar to that of “Jack-the Ripper”.
