艾玛(海伦·麦克洛瑞 Helen McCrory 饰)是一名经验丰富的律师,专门为曾经在法庭上败诉的人们翻案,这也就意味着,她在工作中要承受远远高于其他同行的压力,但这一切对于心中充满了正义感的艾玛来说并不值一提。
这一次,艾玛的客户是一位名叫凯文(萨姆·斯温斯伯里 Sam Swainsbury 饰)的男子,他锒铛入狱已经14年之久了。曾经,凯文被控诉杀害了一位女学生,虽然并没有确凿的证据证明凯文就是凶手,但当时的舆论对于凯文来说非常的不利,迫于压力,凯文认罪了。如今,凯文的儿子已经成长为了青葱少年,始终不相信凯文有罪的他的前妻决定不再让孩子背负父亲是杀人犯的污名。
It’s official: Resident Alien has been renewed for a fourth season at a new NBCUniversal home, USA Network, moving from cable sibling Syfy.
As Deadline reported exclusively last month, the quirky sci-fi comedy-drama was not likely to continue on Syfy, with a move to USA as its most viable option to get a fourth season with a significant budget reduction.
The series begins when suspected human remains are uncovered on Whitney Marsh - Jess and Sunny are immediately called to the scene, abandoning their evening plans to Jess’s husband’s chagrin. Dr Balcombe’s analysis reveals that the remains are relatively recent and suggest a grim conclusion: the body was placed there already dismembered. With this insight, Jess and Sunny intensify their search certain that other body parts may not be far away.
As the investigation unfolds, viewers are introduced to a diverse new cast of characters: Melinda Ricci, an outspoken television commentator based in Ireland; Martin ‘Marty’ Baines, an autistic man living with his mother Dot in Deal, Kent; Asif Syed, an Afghan training for his UK citizenship test; and Juliet Cooper, a history lecturer and faculty head at a London university.
While these characters live seemingly separate lives, they are intricately connected by their pasts. It’s up to Jess, Sunny, and their dedicated team to uncover these hidden links and ultimately expose the truth behind the cold case murder.
