But Dan's years of devotion to the job have taken a toll on his marriage, and after he stands her up on their 25th wedding anniversary, Marianne asks for a divorce. A blindsided Dan tries to reconnect with Marianne, but unbeknownst to him, she's developing feelings for another of her colleagues: Detective Flemming. As their relationships are tested and loyalties shift, the trio must still work together to solve heinous crimes in Elsinore.
