9. The Mayor And His Family Are Suspects

True Detective Car On Fire
HBO

The fact that Vinci's mayor is a somewhat shady figure is hardly a surprise, given the all-encompassing nature of corruption in the city. However, his livid reaction to Ani and Paul snooping around his home is not the response of a man eager to see the Caspere murder solved. It will be very interesting to see just how deep Mayor Chessani's connection to the case runs, and whether he proves to be the gatekeeper of a far wider conspiracy. 

As for the mayor's family, they proved to be a weird bunch. His wannabe-gangster son and airheaded trophy wife fill in some background information for both the detectives and audience, but the real source of intrigue could be his mysteriously silent daughter.
