Storyline:

Demián Bichir stars in the role of "Marco Ruiz," a homicide investigator for the state of Chihuahua, Mexico living in Ciudad Juárez. A family man, Marco is one of the last good men in a corrupt and apathetic police force that is out-gunned by the powerful drug cartels. He's sharp, charming, and observant and painfully aware that his city is in a state of chaos. When a body is dumped on the bridge that spans the El Paso-Ciudad Juárez border, Ruiz is forced to work with his American counterpart, "Detective Sonya North."
 

As a devotee of the masterful Swedish/Danish version, I'm keen to check this out. Has it started in the States yet?

After very good start, the rest of season turned out to be quite average.
