The series is created and written by Dennis Lehane, a novelist whose books are responsible for some of the biggest movies of the century, including Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island, Clint Eastwood’s Mystic River, and Ben Affleck’s Gone Baby Gone.
The series stars Taron Egerton (Kingsman) and Jurnee Smollett (True Blood) as the arson investigator and detective, respectively. The plot is inspired by the popular podcast Firebug, which details the crimes of famous California arsonist John Leonard Orr.
