What Season 1 of Coroner

Jenny Cooper is a Toronto medical examiner who has recently been widowed. She previously worked as an emergency room doctor, but the sudden death of her husband has left her deeply shaken. Her job is to examine bodies to determine whether a death is natural, accidental or suspicious. Alongside homicide detective Donovan McAvoy, she tries to solve these cases and prove what others have written off as closed. At home, her teenage son Ross struggles with anxiety and grief over the loss of his father. Jenny must support him without neglecting her work, and that double pressure runs throughout the season. Based on the novels by M. R. Hall, the series airs on CBC and stars Serinda Swan.
