No one knew they were together. Now one of them is dead.

56 DAYS AGO

Ciara and Oliver meet in a Dublin supermarket queue, just as COVID-19 begins creeping across Ireland. A spark. A chance. A distraction–from everything they’re trying to outrun.

35 DAYS AGO

With lockdown looming, Oliver suggests they move in together. For Ciara, it feels like a rare opportunity to let a relationship bloom in total privacy. For Oliver, it’s the perfect way to keep his past–and his true nature–hidden.

TODAY

Detectives force their way into Oliver’s apartment and find a body decomposing inside.

As they untangle a relationship built on secrets and half-truths, they face the ultimate question: Did lockdown give birth to love–or the perfect murder?
