Mysteries of Laura is a procedural drama following a quirky female homicide detective who juggles high stakes crime as well as her ex-husband and a devilish set of twin boys. The drama, written by Jeff Rake (Cashmere Mafia) — who will executive-produce with Berlanti, Melissa Berman and Aaron Kaplan — is based on a Spanish format.
