Shot documentary-style on the streets of London, London Kills dramatizes the experiences of a team of top murder detectives.
Veteran DI David Bradford (Hugo Speer) heads an elite murder squad, but he’s been on leave following the unexplained disappearance of his wife. In his absence, ambitious DS Vivienne Cole (Sharon Small) has been leading the investigations, and when Bradford returns to work, the two clash over their methods and lines of inquiry. Despite the tension, Bradford and Cole strive to solve complex crimes, along with DC Rob Brady (Bailey Patrick) and Trainee DC Billie Fitzgerald (Tori Allen-Martin).
The team tackles a new riveting murder case in each episode. The only case David can’t crack is the most personal to him—until one of their investigations uncovers evidence linked to his missing wife.
