Thirteen Years of Dust tells the story of a series of serial homicides in Nandu 13 years ago, starting with Chen Xiao and Chen Jian Bin as they tried to solve the murders.

Due to the limitations of CSI at the time, they failed to lock the suspect's case, so it became an unsolved case. 13 years later, the serial murder case resurfaced; the older and younger policemen joined forces again to investigate the cold case.

The flow of the drama alternate between 1997 and 2010; it is boring but not too bad. I think it is better than Who is He so far. The last 4 episodes reviewed more clues, and the unexpected suspect was eventually revealed.

I think it would be better for any crime drama to be cut short between 16-20 episodes so that it does not become draggy and dull. Otherwise, the theme and plot are repetitive as the policemen try to solve the crime.

I believe Chen Xiao performed better in this drama than last year, Being a Hero with Wang Yibo. Overall, it was not too bad; I give it a 7.0 rating.
