- Detectives Ruth Calder and “Tosh” McIntosh investigate the murder of retired social worker Eadie Tulloch in the isolated hamlet of Lunniswick, with a personal link testing team loyalties.
- Ashley Jensen and Alison O’Donnell lead alongside returning regulars Steven Robertson and Lewis Howden, with Samuel Anderson joining as Procurator Fiscal Matt Blake.
- An expanded guest roster features Clive Russell, Ellie Haddington, Niall MacGregor, Louise Brealey, Greg McHugh, Frances Grey and Stuart Townsend.
- Filming anchored in the real village of Levenwick—transformed into fictional Lunniswick—while early social-media reactions praised the show’s return and questioned the plausibility of the opening drug-bust setup.
