Redemption
Created by Sean Cook
On ITV1, Virgin Media Television
A taut six-episode crime drama centered on a composed detective whose professional composure fractures when a case from her past resurfaces.
DI Colette Cunningham's no nonsense approach to policing has earned her the respect of her Merseyside Police colleagues. She seems unflappable, until she gets a call from the Garda in Dublin after the body of a young woman is discovered.
