Nyikina actor Mark Coles Smith fills the shoes of Aaron Pedersen as a young Jay Swan in this prequel season of the hit Australian crime series.

It’s Easter 2000, six months from when we last saw young Detective Jay Swan and his partner Mary. We find them attempting to forge a new life together on her mother’s Country, in the fading timber town of Loch Iris. It doesn’t take long though for the majesty of the tall trees in the brooding surrounding forests and the deep lake that shimmers at the edge of town to take on gothic dimensions.

As Jay begins to investigate an unfolding case, Loch Iris closes ranks around him. The more he pieces together the crime, the more he realises the entire town has been hiding a shadowy past. It's a past that is still rippling through to the present and with it, a secret that threatens to tear Jay and Mary apart.
