Summary
- Eve Myles plays DS Annie Cassidy investigating a wife's disappearance.
- David Morrissey portrays a suspicious, emotionless headmaster husband.
- The drama explores a devilish mystery with a cold case element.
A new crime drama, inspired by a real Bristol detective's work, premieres in 2026. The series, developed by George Kay, features Eve Myles as DS Annie Cassidy. She investigates the unsettling disappearance of Sarah Polly, the wife of a seemingly composed private school headmaster, Michael, played by David Morrissey.
Morrissey's character exhibits a cool demeanor, revealing little emotion about his wife's uncertain fate. Their daughter suggests her mother's life revolved around her father. Meanwhile, DS Cassidy is also working on a cold case from years prior, adding a deeper layer to the investigation.
The narrative unfolds as an intriguing slow burn, with Cassidy suspecting Michael's behavior. However, the series intentionally avoids predictability, presenting a devilish mystery that keeps viewers guessing throughout its six episodes.
