## Synopsis

We Hunt Together (2020-2022) is a British crime thriller series created by Gaby Hull for U&Alibi. Two conflicted police officers, Detective Sergeant Lola Franks (Eve Myles) and Detective Inspector Jackson Mendy (Babou Ceesay), are assigned to track down a pair of deadly killers. Their investigation pulls them into a volatile emotional and sexual entanglement that threatens their judgment and their careers. Each season follows the hunt for a new pair of dangerous offenders, with the detectives drawn ever closer to the people they are chasing, including Freddy Lane (Hermione Corfield) and Baba Lenga (Dipo Ola) in the wider investigation. The series runs for two seasons of six episodes each, giving a tightly paced, self-contained shape to each case. Its tone is tense, brooding and morally murky, with a focus on the intoxication of attraction and the manipulation that can accompany it. Set in contemporary Britain, its atmosphere is claustrophobic and tightly controlled. Fans of Bodyguard, Line of Duty and Hannibal will find resonance in its blend of procedural pursuit and psychological intensity.
