Plot:
In the city of Las Vegas, Nevada, its reputation for providing instant success for those willing to try their luck draws in the hopeful and the naive. This constant influx of visitors also provides ripe targets for criminals of all varieties, confident they will never be caught. Unfortunately for them, most are proven wrong by the Las Vegas Police Department's night shift Crime Scene Investigations unit led by ex-stripper and single parent Catherine Willows. With almost obsessive dedication towards her quest for the facts, she and her elite team of investigators work various perplexing cases using scientific skills and equipment that are capable of finding valuable clues from the most seemingly unlikely sources. Her team consists of Nick Stokes, Greg Sanders, Sara Sidle and Raymond Langston, who was hired by Gil Grissom following his departure half-way through season nine. They are assisted by Coroners Al Robbins and David Phillips, hard-nosed Captain Jim Brass, and Trace Technician David Hodges. The team has solved cases other labs render unsolvable, and taken down some of the most corrupt cops in the LVPD, such as McKeen, an undersheriff who killed Warrick Brown.

WOULD RECOMMEND IT?
I recommend this serie because it is quite interesting and you have a new mistery in each episode.It is really adictive and the special effects are very real.
