“Versailles is the next step in the international co-production strategy we are now pursuing with our partners,” said Fabrice de la Patellière, Head of French Drama and Co-productions at Canal Plus. “This new season, that we aim to develop with renewed originality, will be a full-blown immersion into the absolute power of Louis XIV.” Added Claude Chelli, Director of Capa Drama: “King Louis XIV ruled France for 72 years, so there are still many stories to be told, in the same style and with the same contemporary approach that we established in Season 1. So it is with great relish that for the second season, we are going to take the series into the realm of women, love potions and poisons.”
警视厅搜查一课主任姬川玲子（竹内结子 饰）是一个干练果敢、作风彪悍的狮子座女刑警，她与下属菊田和男（西岛秀俊 饰）、石仓保（宇梶刚士 饰）、汤田康平（丸山隆平 饰）、叶山则之（小出惠介 饰）以及编外的井冈博满（生濑胜久 饰）共同组成了破案无数的姬川班。但是其一向靠直觉追查元凶的风格以及争抢好胜的性格，使得玲子在同侪之中饱受非议与苛责。她时常被其他部门称为“大小姐”、“公主”，甚至傲慢的老刑警胜俣健作（武田铁矢 饰）干脆称之为“乡下人”。尽管如此，这名有着不堪回忆的铁血女子在今泉春男系长（高岛政宏 饰）的支持下，率领姬川班一次又一次奔赴罪案现场，与每一桩血案背后的凶手展开斗智斗勇的较量…… 本片根据日本推理作家誉田哲也的同名悬疑小说改编。
