About this show

Car dealer Frank Mallon (Adam Fergus, Being Erica) is watching his life fall apart around him. His wife has left him, his cars aren’t selling, and his teenage daughter, Corrina (Kelly Thornton, Sing Street), is out of control. When bank manager Desmond Rane (Aidan McArdle, Mr. Selfridge) tells Frank he’s about to lose everything, Frank devises a plan to fix his money problems while also getting revenge on the people who are making his life miserable. But when the plan goes awry and one of his conspirators (Damien Molony, Suspects) disappears, Frank’s troubles multiply as old jealousies come to light and lives are put at risk. This riveting drama from award-winning writer Billy Roche (The Eclipse) explores just how far desperation will drive the residents of one small Irish town.
