Kate Mccartney and Kate Mclennan created, wrote and executive-produced this Australian mystery series, a “feminist noir” that features their signature biting comedic tone. The eight-episode series is set in the titular Tasmanian town, a once sleepy seaside hamlet that is left reeling when a local man turns up dead on the beach. Two detectives are thrown together to solve the case: fastidious local Senior Sgt. Dulcie Collins (Kate Box) and a tough-as-nails blow-in from Darwin, Senior Investigator Eddie Redcliffe (Madeleine Sami), who are aided by their overeager junior constable, Abby (Nina Oyama). As the town prepares to launch its Winter Feastival — an annual arts, food and culture event — the three women have to put their differences aside and work together to find the killer. The first three episodes are available today; new episodes drop Fridays.
