Every episode will have a case. I had thought to see one episode at a time. But after three episodes, the same intricate case of the Empress is going on. Are the fires man made or heavenly ?
A tussle between two groups… those who support the Empress & the others who hate her, wish to depose her.
Racy & exciting.
