Dublin Murders DVD [Region 2]

In the summer of 2006, the smartly dressed homicide detective Rob Reilly (portrayed by Killian Scott from Ripper Street) and his partner Cassie Maddox (played by Sarah Greene from Penny Dreadful) are tasked with investigating the murder of a child. Their investigation leads them to a community in Ireland that is torn between the traditions of the past and the modernity of the present.

The body of a local teenage girl, the talented Katy Devlin, is discovered on an altar in the middle of an archaeological site. This site is under threat from local developers who want to construct a new motorway. The nearby estate of Knocknaree has long been neglected, suffering from poverty and unemployment for generations. The community is still haunted by the disappearance of children twenty-one years prior, where only one child returned alive.

The deep-rooted memories of the past resurface, causing concern among the locals, the media, and the Dublin Garda that there may be a connection between the current case and the events of the past. Through her adaptation of the first two novels in Tana French's bestselling Dublin Murder series, Sarah Phelps (known for The ABC Murders) creates an eight-part drama filled with psychological intrigue and darkness.

By seamlessly blending elements of mystery and psychological depth, Phelps crafts a gripping narrative that delves into the complexities of the human mind and the shadows of the past. With strong performances from the talented cast and a visually stunning depiction of Ireland's landscapes, this drama captivates audiences with its compelling storytelling and haunting atmosphere. As Rob and Cassie delve deeper into the dark secrets of Knocknaree, they unravel a web of lies and betrayal that will challenge their own beliefs and test their resolve. Through its exploration of themes of loss, trauma, and the enduring power of memory, this series offers a haunting and unforgettable viewing experience for audiences.
