Another big case for Lieutenant Eve Dallas and her team, this time delving into a wealthy cult. Some lovely personal moments bring light to a rather dark story. Some charactes Eve and Peabody encounter have very strong entitlement attitudes. A very satisfying resolution with the taking down of the cult involving interagency cooperation at national and international levels.
Moderate: Child abuse, Domestic abuse, Drug abuse, and Trafficking
Minor: Death, Homophobia, Miscarriage, and Rape

It's always satisfying when Eve and her chosen family of cops (with the help of her former thief, current gazillionaire gorgeous husband) take down the bad guys; but when the bad guys are truly awful fuckers like they were here, the payoff is sweeter.
Loved seeing my favorite characters in action again.
