About

Aaron Pedersen (Jack Irish, A Place to Call Home) reprises his signature role as Detective Jay Swan in this "visually striking" (TV Guide) mystery set in the Australian outback. When a decapitated body is found in the mangroves of a coastal town, Jay teams up with local constable Fran Davis (Jada Alberts, Wentworth) to investigate the crime. Soon a nearby archeologist (Sofia Helin, The Bridge) makes a find that could help with the case, but she conceals it for fear of shutting down her dig site. Facing obstruction at every turn and a rising body count, Jay must expose the web of corruption plaguing the town.
