It is worth it: Unexpected Plot Twist / No Cliché / Different

This is not a romance, be warned. It is a story of investigation, mystery and a touch of fantasy. It's the story of a "sheriff" (that's how it appears to me in the caption), who investigates cases with her work partner. For some reason, some crime cases begin to be linked to a mysterious woman called "The Woman in Red". This woman manages to fulfill her wish in exchange for having access to her thoughts (and memories, apparently). With each episode new crime cases emerge, and twists are discovered about who is guilty of each crime... But that's not all, for some reason the sheriff starts to have strange dreams, and then the questions remain: "What are these dreams?", "Who is the woman in red?", "Why is she helping me in exchange for nothing?"

I confess that I had some doubts at the end of the series, but I hope there is a second season, as it is really very good. Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that it was very well executed, always encouraging the viewer to watch the next episode, and very well recorded, with excellent image quality.
