Award-winning actress Brenda Blethyn (Pride & Prejudice, Atonement) delivers a “powerhouse performance” (Mail on Sunday, UK) as Detective Chief Inspector Vera Stanhope in this fan-favorite mystery series inspired by the novels of Ann Cleeves. Amidst the sweeping landscapes of rural Northumberland, Vera and her assistant, Detective Sergeant Aiden Healy (Kenny Doughty, Stella, Black Work), confront brutal crimes that challenge even Vera’s genius for solving cases.
Blethyn shines.
