Red Queen (Spanish: Reina Roja) is a thriller TV series based on the novel of the same name by Juan Gómez-Jurado.

The world’s most intelligent person, Antonia Scott, is coaxed out of her hermit-like retreat to be partnered with gay Basque police agent Jon Gutiérrez after the killing of the son of a wealthy family and the kidnapping of a wealthy heiress.

The book is good, not great. Perhaps something is lost in translation from Spanish.

The TV show is not as good, I’d say. Confusing. Poor acting.

I only made it through a few episodes.

For the world’s smartest person, Antonia is not that bright.
