And she has a stopwatch that Mireille remembers from the most traumatic moment of her past. They team up to unravel this set of interlocking mysteries.
Review: I remember watching this series back when it was originally released ten years ago and loving it from a story and presentation perspective. I finally did a marathon viewing again and was pleased that it held true to my memories, and also my frustrations about overly stylized melodrama. But it still delivers if you like an interesting, well-executed story.
As for the lesbian potential of the series, you can indulge to your personal interpretation levels with the hints and flashes it shows. For me personally, I highly recommended it to other lesbians so that's where I stand on it.
