What Season 6 of The Closer

Brenda Johnson is the deputy chief of the Los Angeles Police Department and has a reputation as a closer, the investigator who gets confessions that lead to convictions. A former CIA-trained interrogator and a native of Atlanta, she puts her methods to the test with each new case. Inside the precinct, some colleagues challenge her out of jealousy and insecurity, but she responds with composure. The cases range from custody disputes and disappearances to a questionable rehab center and a ring of marijuana dispensary robberies. Captain Raydor joins Brenda on part of the investigations, and the team works even on Christmas, with the lead character's parents in town.
