What can we expect from this episode

The team, led by Annika, is dispatched to the scene where the body of a local lothario is discovered frozen solid between the two beautiful Hebridean islands of Scotland, Jura and Islay.

DC Harper Weston (Varada Sethu), a new addition to the unit, helps the team unravel the mystery of the victim’s identity by locating a provocatively placed tattoo. They soon discover, however, that it may have been the ripple effect of his whisky-fueled “wind-up” antics and reputation across both islands that ultimately proved fatal.

Annika reads 1984 by George Orwell and is forced to confront her deepest fears as she negotiates a shifting relationship dynamic with Michael and an unexpected reunion with an old flame. Annika encounters her own personal Room 101 amidst all the mayhem.

Annika follows the sharp, witty and enigmatic DI Annika Strandhed as she heads up a new specialist Marine Homicide Unit (MHU) that is tasked with investigating the unexplained, brutal, and seemingly unfathomable murders that wash up in the waterways of Scotland.

Throughout the series, Annika makes the audience her confidante by breaking the fourth wall and sharing her wry observations on the case and her life, as she manages her brilliant yet unconventional team, and her equally brilliant yet complex teenage daughter.
