In an isolated village in the north west of Ireland, with its own laws and codes of conduct, a murder investigation begins when police officer Conall Ó Súilleabháin’s missing mother Sabine is discovered buried in the bog after 15 years missing. Conall is forbidden from working the case but that’s not going to stop him.
Meanwhile, a young journalist, Ciara-Kate, decides to produce a podcast about the case. Conall soon realises that Ciara-Kate can get access to people who refuse to speak to the official investigation. If Conall wants justice for his mother, he has no choice but to join forces with this citizen journalist. Their investigation leads them on a dark path and begs the question: can justice really be blind?
Why we like it:
Gritty with a distinctive Irish humour, an iconic setting and an unlikely detective duo: a tough cop and a quirky true crime podcaster.
