From the novel by Ann Cleeves. The first episode shows a lot of inspiration from Broadchurch.
Director Lee Haven Jones has even directed Chris Chibnall era Doctor Who.
DI Matthew Venn (Ben Aldridge) and DS Jenn Rafferty (Pearl Mackie) investigate the death of an alcoholic loner Simon Walton. He moved to Devon after killing a young girl in a drunk driving accident.
Matthew has returned to the tight knit coastal community. He grew up in a strict evangelical cult where he was an outcast for being gay.
There is a big cast here, plenty of characters with dark secrets, shady pasts and in the case of Dennis (Martin Shaw) he seems to be dodgy in the present.
I expect Cleeves story would deviate from the formula in later episodes.
