Some relationships heal you. Others reopen wounds you have tried to bury. In this gripping romantic crime thriller, a homicide chief and a forensic psychologist hunt a killer who is always one step ahead, only to find that the darkness they are chasing leads back into their own pasts.

For Chief Inspector Deniz Baran Dağ, justice isn’t just a job, it’s how he survives. Having shut away his emotions since losing his older sister years ago, he is shaken to the core when his niece Neşe, a young police officer he trained himself, is found dead. Everyone believes it was suicide. Deniz is certain it was murder.

At the same time, forensic psychologist Işık returns to Istanbul from London to search for her missing father, Levent. When an unidentified body is found in a forest north of the city, their paths collide. Deniz suspects Levent is linked to Neşe’s death, while Işık is determined to prove his innocence. One trusts the evidence, the other trusts the human mind, and their constant clashes slowly give way to a love neither can resist.

But Neşe is not the only officer whose death was written off as suicide, and the trail leads to a dark network inside the police force and to the clinic run by Işık’s own mother. As Deniz risks his badge, his reputation and everyone he trusts, the return of his estranged brother stirs up family secrets he thought were buried for good. And Işık is hiding a truth of her own. With the killer always one step ahead, will their love prove to be their greatest strength, or their deadliest weakness?

Eccho Rights takes three new TOD Studios dramas to Mipcom

Eccho Rights has acquired worldwide distribution rights to three new Turkish drama series from TOD, the streaming platform owned by beIN Media Group. Spanning romantic thriller, psychological drama and romantic comedy, the new slate builds on Eccho Rights' successful partnership with TOD, following the crime drama Beneath the Surface and the high-concept romance Another Chance. All three titles will be presented to international buyers at MIPCOM in Cannes.

The first title is Alıkara (10 x 45'), which premiered on TOD earlier this month to strong audience interest. Produced by Karga Seven Pictures, the company behind Beneath the Surface, it stars Miray Daner and Halit Özgür Sarı in an intense love story set against crime and grief. When forensic psychologist Işık's father disappears and homicide detective Deniz investigates his niece's suspicious death, their paths cross. As they uncover dark secrets together, the two find refuge in each other.

Doors of Destiny (Zamanın Kapıları, 20 x 45') marks Eccho Rights' first collaboration with leading Turkish producer Medyapım. It stars Esra Bilgiç and Birkan Sokullu. Sinan is a brilliant, reclusive computer genius whose life changes when he meets Nevra, the ambitious daughter of one of Türkiye's most powerful businessmen. Their encounter unlocks buried secrets about Nevra's identity and family. Their growing attraction then draws them into a passionate relationship — and into a world of betrayal, violence and the darker side of Istanbul.

Completing the slate is The Florist (Çiçekçi Kız, 13 x 25’). This romantic comedy from OM Content stars Helin Kandemir and Hakan Çelebi, and premieres on TOD in November. It follows an idealistic flower-shop owner who, in a bid to save her business, unknowingly takes on an undercover police officer as her new partner.

Handan Özkubat, Director of Turkish Drama at Eccho Rights, said:"Our partnership with TOD keeps getting stronger, and this slate shows exactly why. Buyers today want very different things, from linear broadcasters to streamers to digital platforms, and these three series cover that range. There's premium, cast-led drama in Alıkara and Doors of Destiny, and something fresh and fun in The Florist. We can't wait to share all three with buyers at MIPCOM.

Yadigar Belbuken, VP Entertainment at beIN Media Group, said:"Eccho Rights has been an important partner in bringing TOD Studios originals to international audiences, and we value their continued support in taking titles such as Beneath the Surface and Another Chance to global buyers. These three new series reflect the breadth and ambition of the original content we are developingat TOD, and we are looking forward to intruducing them to global buyers and audiences around the world."
