The Suspect has been adapted by Peter Berry (Gangs of London, The Last Enemy, Prime Suspect 6) from the novel by Michael Robotham of the same title.
A teaser shares: “The series introduces Doctor Joseph O’Loughlin a man who appears to have the perfect life – a beautiful wife, a loving daughter and a successful career as a clinical psychologist. But nothing can be taken for granted. Even the most flawless existence is only a loose thread away from unravelling.
“All it takes is a murder victim, a troubled young patient and the biggest lie of his life. Caught in an increasingly complex web of deceit, Joseph risks everything as he embarks on a journey that will take him into the darkest recesses of the human mind. ”
