S01E01 Episode 1
A body is found on a beach in North Devon. DI Matthew Venn and his team search for a way into a case that has no witnesses, no forensics and no motive.
Thou shalt not kill.
The prospect of rebuilding a relationship with his mother blurs Matthew's ability to objectively examine the Brethren community, and he wrestles professional and personal issues to solve the case before anyone else gets hurt. Lucy and Gaby can no longer stay quiet as an important silence breaks and the extent of the lies suffocating the communities continues to widen.
Detective Matthew Venn returns to the small North Devon community he grew up in with his husband and begins investigating a murder whilst coming to terms with his own traumatic past, having been excommunicated by his family and the church community they lived in.
