Castle: A Marvelous Murder Mystery Part 1

Review
Castle is an ABC TV series about solving mystery murders. It is not just another CSI or NYPD Blue, it is a show that focuses on the human element of a crime. It does not impress with forensics or action-packed gun fights, but with amazing story-telling skills by the actors to explore and expand the story of the crime.
Set in New York City, it provides not only a good drama series but also a healthy seasoning of humour. This post will be about the 2 main characters which keep me coming back for more.

Richard Castle played by Nathan Fillion

Richard Castle is a ruggedly handsome, renegade, charming and funny novelist fresh of his recent best-seller. But with his success he has lost his inspiration but with his connections with the Mayor, he managed to get up close and personal with the NYPD and studies a certain Detective Kate Beckett. He is a wonderful story-teller and has the uncanny ability to think like a murderer. He gets into the mind of the killer and can think a head steps behind or ahead of a killers next move.

Detective Kate Beckett, played brilliantly by Stana Katic

Kate Beckett became a murder detective because her mother was murdered early in Kate's life. Her  colleagues describes her as tenacious with her case solving and is still obsessed with her mother's death and vows to find the killer. She initially finds Castle's method of solving crime reckless and compromising but eventually realises his helpfulness in a case.

Thats it for now. See you in a bit
