Two Birds
Set against the rarely-seen-on-screen landscape of Kalgoorlie, a remote Australian mining town carved from red earth, where rusted shafts and weatherboard pubs fade into endless bush, this harsh, beautiful, and isolating world clings tightly to its secrets.
The series centres on British Police Constable Izzie Cornwell, who arrives in the small fictional town of Dugdale having been recently widowed and intent on a fresh start and a new life in Australia.
Focused upon chasing away her grief, Izzie hopes to reconnect with her sister who moved to the Kalgoorlie area with her Australian husband, and most important of all, to rebuild trust with her twenty-year-old daughter, who is scared by her mother's recent destructive behaviour.
Izzie is assigned to investigate a murder alongside her new boss Matt, a Homicide Detective from Perth. When the victim is revealed to be part of a notorious local crime family, led by the formidable Mrs Baxter, the stakes intensify.
Determined to protect her family and uncover the truth, Mrs Baxter exerts fierce pressure on the case.
But the night before Izzie joins the case, one reckless last hurrah goes disastrously wrong and a split-second decision results in consequences Izzie can't undo, forcing her into a secret she must do everything to contain.
