Season 2
Shetland is a British murder-mystery crime drama television series following Detective Jimmy Perez, a native Shetlander who has returned home after a long spell away and leads a murder investigation, uncovering secrets and lies from the past.
In Raven Black, a local recluse looks like the obvious suspect in the murder of a teenage girl, until another corpse and a secret hiding place reveal new clues.
A journalist's fatal car accident seems suspicious in Dead Water after Perez discovers the driver was researching plans for a controversial new gas pipeline.
And in Blue Lightning, Perez flies to nearby Fair Isle to investigate a scientist's death, just before incoming storms ground all flights. Can Perez solve the crime without a forensic team, and before the prime suspect slips away?
With a murderer on the loose, D.I. Jimmy Perez is determined to protect the people of his beloved Shetland Islands from harm.
Based on the book Red Bones by award-winning crime writer Ann Cleeves, Shetland is written by David Kane (The Field Of Blood, Taggart, Foyle's War), produced by Sue de Beauvoir (Merlin, Waterloo Road) and directed by Peter Hoar (Vera, Silk, Five Days).
Shetland is an ITV Studios production for BBC One through BBC Scotland.
