This 8-episode thriller starts Wednesday, October 29 with two episodes, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through December 10.
Down Cemetery Road is adapted from by Mick Herron's novel of the same name. Herron is the CWA Diamond Dagger Award winner whose Slough House novels were adapted into the award winning Slow Horses series.
The storyline of Down Cemetery Road follows Thompson as a private investigator pulled out of near-retirement when a teenage girl vanishes from a quiet Oxford suburb. What begins as a domestic disappearance rapidly changes into a conspiracy rooted in the university’s inner sanctums — power, secrecy, old money, and the brutal machinery that protects them. Thompson is joined by Ruth Wilson, who plays a morally ambiguous academic with ties to the missing student.
Can't wait! More to come after I've seen the first two episodes. Let me know what you think, too!
