a detective with no badge
12 titles
A teenager in Brick finds his ex-girlfriend dead in a sewage tunnel and starts asking questions around his own high school. Philip Marlowe drives a friend to the Mexican border in The Long Goodbye, comes home to police in his flat, and is arrested as an accessory before anyone explains why. The Globe reporters in Spotlight spend a year uncovering a cover-up that reaches the top of the city. None of them can make anybody answer: no badge, no warrant, no backup, so every door has to be talked open. You watch them talk people into answering, and watch what it costs when somebody refuses.
