"After the Flood" is a climate change mystery thriller set in a town where floods threaten to expose ongoing deceptions, and where fortunes and reputations are at stake - the question is: how far have people gone already to protect those interests - and how far will they go in the future? A year on from the explosive hook of Series 1, Jo Marshall (Sophie Rundle) is now a detective. As tensions simmer in Waterside amid the rising threat of moorland fires and the subsequent risk of further flooding, a man’s body is found in perplexing circumstances: it appears he was shot after death. In the aftermath, Jo arrests a charismatic man who appears to have valuable information. But when he escapes custody and turns up dead himself, also shot after death, Jo finds herself following the trail of a baffling double murder investigation. With no clear link between the two victims, Jo has to act fast to uncover the truth before anyone else is killed. But she must balance her race to stop the killer with a much more personal investigation, as she and Pat work on bringing down their corrupt boss, Sergeant Mackie (Nicholas Gleaves). It will require them to operate in secret if they are to have any hope of rooting out the corruption that has blighted the town’s police force - and Jo’s own family - for decades.
