Stemming from a need to speed up the capture of criminals using hard evidence, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has just established a new forensic lab information and investigative authority section inside the Firs criminal Division, the top killer catchers on the force. The members of the forensic team are dubbed the “white coats.” Kazuki Kitamura stars in his first lead role for a TBS drama series as white coat investigator Satoshi Ichinose, who uses his advanced forensic skills and unique investigative methods to crack puzzling cases. He is joined by Shosuke Tanihara as “the human lie detector” Masayuki Honda, and Hiroyuki Miyasako ex-forensics ace, Toru Okunuki, to round out the cool white coat, forensic “geek” trio. While they all differ in personality and specialty, it is their cooperation and respect for each that solves crimes.

The setting is the opulent “Hibarigaoka” hilltop district coveted by anyone with dreams of wealth. The story revolves around three families: the Endos, the Takahashis and the Kojimas. Mayumi Endo has scrimped and saved to at last build a small house in the district, fulfilling a long-cherished dream. But reality proved much different. The Takahashis across the street seem to Mayumi a model family leading a blessed and happy existence. That is until the same type of trouble that the Endos are experiencing with a violently rebellious daughter, occurs tragically at the Takahashis, destroying Mayumi’s picture of an ideal home. The husband, Hiroyuki, is murdered, and the second son, Shinji, goes missing, making him the prime suspect in the eyes of the police, the Endos, the Kojimas and among the remaining children at the Takahashi home. But in a moving climax, “a painfully beautiful ode to familial love” awaits!
