Shetland: Series 1-3

Created from the novels by award-winning crime writer Ann Cleeves (Vera), Shetland follows Detective Inspector Jimmy Perez (Douglas Henshall) and his team as they investigate crime within the close knit island community. In this isolated and sometimes inhospitable environment, the team have to rely on a uniquely resourceful style of policing. Set against a hauntingly beautiful landscape, Shetland series 1 and 2 is based on the best selling books Red Bones, Raven Black, Dead Water and Blue Lightning. In the third series of Shetland, a single original story, Perez tackles a case that extends from the beautiful Shetland Islands back to the Scottish mainland; one that will exact a terrible personal toll on both him, and his team.
