Any reviewer will of course notice many many elements in common between those two series: CITOYENS CLANDESTINS and BUREAU DES LEGENDES. Both very well documented concerning French Intelligence agencies who fight against each other as well as against terrorist threat. As you can guess it is complicated, complex, with plenty of characters whose fates are parallel before crossing. Excellent scheme for a series, but hard to follow. But after all, that's the charm of those series, ins'it? The Lynx character may be miscast, but this role is supposed to be a chameleon, a clandestine agent supposed to have several personalities, identities, "legends" as they call in Intelligence world. Adapted from DOA's novel, a writer who also gave us the book from which the movie SERPENT AUX MILLE COUPURES was produced. Good stuff.
