The beautiful English seaside town of Whitstable is home to Pearl Nolan (Kerry Godliman) who divides her time between serving up tasty seafood delicacies in her restaurant and solving the crimes, debauchery, and murder regularly brought in by the tide…the British seaside holiday will never be the same again.

Julie Wassmer’s much-loved novels are brought to the screen for the first time by iconic Norwegian filmmaker Øystein Karlsen (ExitDagLilyhammer) and the award-winning producers of hit detective series Marcella. Alongside Kerry Godliman (DerekAfter Life), the series stars Howard Charles (The Three Musketeers, Alex Rider), Frances Barber (Doctor Who, Silk), Robert Webb (Peep ShowThat Mitchell and Webb Look), Sophia Del Pizzo (Shelley, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia), Isobelle Molloy (MaleficentEastEnders), and Rohan Nedd (Doctor WhoBlue Story).
