Who Is In It? Hugh Dillon, Laurence Leboeuf, Justin Louis
Hugh Dillon (Flashpoint) stars as Detective Mike Sweeney, who moves his family to a suburban town and takes a job on the local police force. His wife is recovering from breast cancer, and their relationship is distant. His older daughter plans to follow in her father’s footsteps, and her morbid fascination with violent crime and death grates at her recovering mother, particularly after Sweeney begins investigating the murder of two teenage girls. Viewers who think they are one step ahead of the police will quickly find they are mistaken as the twists in this dark and emotionally charged drama increase. Durham County has much in common with the David Lynch film Blue Velvet, including the feeling that all those beautiful houses and manicured lawns hide deadly secrets that innocents can barely comprehend.
