'Each episode follows Mick and Shazia as they navigate a rich and colorful world driven by greed, obsession, lust and revenge,' the synopsis tells us. 'Throughout the season, the artfully astute detectives encounter a fake Vermeer, Viking gold, a rare Chinese vase, and items rescued from the Titanic. Mick navigates these demanding cases while managing a budding romance with museum curator Rosa (Pennyworth's Sarah Alexander).'
In the series premiere, titled 'Pictures at an Exhibition,' Mick and Shazia visit a country house where an art historian has been brutally murdered. In the exclusive sneak peek above, the duo survey the crime scene, where they pore over a takeout menu and find a crucial clue.
In the second episode dropping on Monday, titled 'Dead & Buried,' Mick and Shazia investigate the discovery of a gold hoard and realize it's been stolen from a prehistoric burial chamber. As they dig deeper, they uncover a faked suicide, professional betrayal and a thousand year-old cover up!
