A KILLER WITH A GOSPEL.
On Easter morning, a body is found in the ruins of a church; decapitated, naked, knelt as if in prayer.
A DETECTIVE WITHOUT FAITH.
Detective Lewan Kane is deeply troubled by the harrowing scene: this ritualistic killer hasn't left a single trace.
A MYSTERY LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
In a quiet corner of Dublin, Ella Lonan is wrestling with her sanity, haunted by disturbing visions - severed heads on an altar, a young woman drowned by a black ocean.
When Kane appears in one such episode, Ella turns up at his office, desperate for answers.
Can Ella's visions help Lewan catch a killer? Or will they open the door to something even darker than death?
