When London-based investigative journalist Dove (Siobhán Cullen) finds herself at the centre of a whistle-blower’s suicide, she’s sent away by her editor to assist American True Crime podcaster Gilbert (Will Forte) and researcher Emmy (Robyn Cara) in uncovering a decades-old mystery.
The eponymous town of Bodkin is situated somewhere within the rolling hills of West Cork, Ireland, under the shadow of a mysterious past event. Twenty-odd years ago, three members of Bodkin’s community went missing under suspicious circumstances on the night of Samhain – a Gaelic festival which falls on the same day as Halloween.
