87 parts Complete MatureNew York's Special Victims Unit is no stranger to broken souls-but Detective Riley Marlowe may be the most complicated one yet.
Transferring from Narcotics after a case went tragically wrong, Riley carries the weight of a brutal past and a sharp-edged reputation. Haunted by family trauma and the loss of a partner she couldn't save, Riley buries her guilt behind quick wit, sarcasm, and a relentless drive for justice. Her methods are unorthodox, her walls nearly impenetrable, but her instincts make her invaluable to the squad.
When Captain Cragen takes a chance on her-just a month before Odafin Tutuola's arrival-Riley must navigate tense partnerships, suspicious colleagues, and victims who reflect the shadows she tries to escape.
But as cases intensify and her buried secrets begin to surface, the question becomes: can Riley survive SVU without destroying herself-or will the darkness finally catch up to her?
