In the summer of 2006, Rob Reilly (Killian Scott), a smart suited homicide detective and his partner Cassie (Sarah Greene) are dispatched to investigate a child’s murder and find a community caught between old and new Ireland.
On an altar lies the body of a local teenage girl, precociously talented Katy Devlin (Amy Macken). Her body is found in the middle of an archeological site, threatened by local developers aiming to build a shiny new motorway. The neighbouring estate, Knocknaree, has never quite got its share of the ‘Celtic Tiger’ and has been blighted by poverty and unemployment for generations.
Moreover, this is the not the first time a child of Knocknaree has been lost: 21 years earlier, in a very different Ireland, three children went missing and only one ever came back alive.
Memory runs deep in this part of the world, and locals, press and the Dublin Police worry that the cases are linked.
阴翳冷郁的色调,英伦岛上独有的凌厉剪辑风格和视觉调度。编剧是个狠人,两本原著的故事揉杂在一起还只有8集,故事魅力被完全激发,让我控制不住下单了两本原著想看看文字层面的感觉。男主演技极好,这个角色的温柔脆弱都在眼神里,到最后女主走出来了,偏偏只剩他还是那只留在20年前森林里的孤独幼狼,好想抱着他跟他说:That‘s OK Adam
