Synopsis

LIES is a psychological thriller following the investigations of Julie Beauchemin, an interrogation specialist whose success relies on her methods, expertise, and sharp analytical skills. Her investigations go beyond simply catching criminals; they aim to uncover the lies that implicate them and those around them.

Julie Beauchemin is an exceptional investigator, capable of solving the most complex mysteries without ever leaving the squad's offices. Despite her role in the criminal investigation unit, she has a pathological fear of corpses, blood, and weapons.

With the help of Maxime Moreli and Bob Crépeault, this expert in deception unmasks a new killer in each episode while conducting a complex investigation into her mother's suicide 24 years earlier.
