Jack Taylor. Set 1 [videorecording] / Magma Productions and Molten Rock Media present ; a series by Stuart Orme ; screenplays by Marteinn Thorisson ... [et al] ; produced by Clodagh Freeman ; directed by Stuart Orme.
Self-destructive, pigheaded, and over-fond of the bottle, Jack Taylor (Iain Glen, Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey) is a forty-something ex-cop trying to earn a living as a private detective in his native Galway. Taylor has burned a lot of bridges, but he still has a knack for uncovering ugly truths. In his new trade, Taylor finds evil at every turn: the serial murders of young female factory workers, a vicious vigilante group executing summary justice, and a sadistic nun dubbed ' Lucifer' by her former charges. Set against the rugged backdrop of western Ireland, this crime noir series depicts a country in transition, caught between the certainties of the past and the anxieties of a post-bubble future.
