Patience is not your typical clerical worker; she holds a crucial position in the local police department, where her responsibilities include meticulously filing and organizing police records. However, what sets her apart from her colleagues is her neurodiverse mind. As an autistic woman, she experiences the world differently, which manifests in her obsessive interest in puzzles—be it jigsaw puzzles, crosswords, or even the complexities of human behavior.

The juxtaposition of Patience's unconventional methods and Detective Metcalf's traditional investigative techniques creates a compelling dynamic, as they navigate a series of challenging cases that put both their skills to the test.
