Front (2014)

Gripping, with lots of twists

I'm stunned by the evident lack of appreciation for this series. It starts with a premise of a secret lab in Germany working on a possible atomic bomb, and develops rapidly into a multilayered intrigue with espionage and counter espionage as both sides try to secure the brilliant Polish scientist. There are many interesting twists, so don't get too comfortable with your ideas of each character. The cast is superb.
