Three thirty-something friends travel to a Donegal wake and discover their old school friend Greta has faked her death. As teenagers they helped bury a journalist who threatened to expose Greta's role in a tragic childhood fire, and that buried secret resurfaces with devastating consequences. A kind, stoic Garda named Liam investigates and forms a romantic connection with TV writer Saoirse while helping the friends confront shared trauma. Liam locates the journalist's burial site and aids a cathartic reunion, complicating justice and closure. The series mixes mystery, dark revelations, and Scooby-Doo–inspired hijinks with emotional catharsis.
"The first season ends with Liam piecing together the truth about Greta's disappearance. As teens back in school, the girls helped Greta bury the body of a journalist (Josh Finan) who threatened to expose the truth about her role in a tragic fire as a young child. When the past catches up with Greta, she fakes her own death with a secret organization that helps women in dire situations."
"The kind but stoic Gardalends a delightful frisson to the Netflix series (streaming now), as he develops a romantic connection with one of the posse, TV writer Saoirse (Roísín Gallagher). "Liam's a natural kind of protector. He has a softness that comes from genuinely caring about the work he does and the people he interacts with, and I think that was quite important," Hand tells Bustle over Zoom. "Because he's also a young man who perhaps is still figuring out who he is.""
