Right or wrong, everybody's coming for her.
Created by Marlon James
On HBO
A taut, character-driven crime drama following a damaged ex-cop investigating missing persons in Jamaica, where personal demons and unsolvable cases collide.
Ex Scotland Yard detective Millie-Jean Black returns to Kingston to work missing persons; soon finding herself on a quest to save a sister who won’t be saved, to find a boy who can’t be found, to solve a case that will blow her world apart and prove almost as tough to crack as Millie Black.
