Jack Taylor: Set 3 - DVD

Self-destructive, pigheaded, and over fond of the bottle, Jack Taylor (Iain Glen, Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey) is a forty-something ex-cop trying to earn a living as a private detective in his native Galway. Taylor has burned a lot of bridges, but he still has a knack for uncovering ugly truths. In his new trade, Taylor finds evil at every turn The serial murders of young female factory workers, a vicious vigilante group executing summary justice, and a sadistic nun dubbed InchLuciferInch by her former charges. Set against the rugged backdrop of western Ireland, this crime noir series depicts a country in transition, caught between the certainties of the past and the anxieties of a post-bubble future. Those same strains play out in the life of Jack Taylor, a man seeking to reinvent himself in a community with a long memory and an uneasy attitude towards change. Includes three feature-length mysteries The Guards, the Pikemen, and the Magdalen Martyrs.

Jack Taylor (Iain Glen, GAME OF THRONES, DOWNTON ABBEY) is a former cop turned private investigator with little to show for his time in the Irish Guards but his old police overcoat. Few of his former colleagues have any regard for Taylor, who looks more like the people they arrest every day than one of their own. The exception is his friend Garda Kate Noonan (Nora-Jane Noone, THE MAGDALENE SISTERS), though even she has to walk a fine line between helping Taylor and irritating her boss. Six months sober, Taylor takes on cases with the help of his young assistant, Cody (Killian Scott, LOVE/HATE), even while he worries about his elderly mother, who has suffered a stroke. Try as he might, the ex-cop from Galway finds that in his hometown, his past is always just a mistake away. Includes three feature-length mysteries THE DRAMATIST, PRIEST, and SHOT DOWN.

Three years have passed and Jack lives a quiet life as a lawyer and father. But when an off-duty cop is killed, he, journalist and ex-love Linda, and friend Cam find themselves knee-deep in police corruption and long-buried secrets. As new details surface about his wife's murder 20 years ago, Jack begins to question his past-and risk his future. SDH. 4 episodes, 4 hrs, 2 DVDs or Blu-ray discs.
