About this item

The brooding Australian antihero of Peter Temples award-winning crime novels returns in this six-part drama. Emmy winner Guy Pearce (Memento, Iron Man 3) is Jack Irish, a former criminal lawyer turned private investigator and debt collector. When Jack is contracted to find a man with a criminal past who is then killed in front of him, Jack suspects a set-up. The case spirals into a larger international conspiracy involving Muslim extremists and born-again Christians. Meanwhile, Jacks on-again, off-again girlfriend, journalist Linda Hillier (Marta Dusseldorp, A Place to Call Home) , leaves Melbourne to further her career as a foreign correspondent in Manila. Though the job is not exactly what she had planned, Linda quickly realizes she may be on to a big story. As their cases eventually intertwine, Jack and Lindas reunion is tested by the arrival of Sarah Longmore (Claudia Karvan, The Secret Life of Us) , a metal sculptor with connections. This cinematic noir features a complex narrative brimming with dark humor, memorable characters, and outstanding performances.
