After questioning by police in connection to a murder enquiry, a parish priest suddenly absconds.

Detective Inspector Flood travels to Ireland in pursuit.

Nicola Walker stars in Nick Perry's gritty crime drama.

Each Roman Catholic parish compiles a Book of the Dead from the lists of departed loved ones submitted by parishioners.

Printed on the front of the envelopes are three words:

November Dead List.

A young priest opens one such envelope and discovers - not a list of the dead but a list of people he knows to be alive, and members of his congregation.

At first he thinks it's someone's idea of a joke. Then the people named start turning up dead.
