Detective Richard Poole is still trapped on the stunning Caribbean island of Saint Marie, but, for him, the sun, sea and sand aren't quite paradise. Faced with puzzling murders and a local team with unorthodox approaches, Poole must use his eye for detail, relentless logic and stubborn refusal to leave anything unexplained to solve these cases. He is joined once again by the feisty Camille Bordey, instinctive, wild, exotic and brilliant. Together they face a pirate curse, murdered nuns and a case that must be solved while a hurricane bears down on the island.

Quintessentially British cop Richard Poole (Ben Miller, Primeval) is a fish out of water when he is sent to the tiny island of Saint Marie to solve a mysterious murder. Poole encounters a very different type of policing at his new post that challenges his more buttoned-up sensibility. His new partner, Camille Bordey (Sara Martins, Paris, je taime), is instinctive, feisty and brilliant, and the rest of the Saint Marie police f-rce certainly have their own unique way of doing things. Though Richard would never admit it, they make a perfect team.

Ian Richardson (From Hell, M. Butterfly) returns as villainous statesman Francis Urquhart in this acclaimed sequel to the Masterpiece Theater thriller House Of Cards. The sardonic statesman's Machiavellian schemes have brought him to the pinnacle of government, but at the moment of his triumph, an idealistic and determined young King stands in his way. How far will Urquhart go to maintain his grip on his growing power? As he threatens to expose a royal scandal, he seems unstoppable, but someone out there knows the secret that could bring him down.
