Set in Ireland during the 1920s, shortly after An Garda Síochána was founded, Sergeant Cathal O’Sullivan finds himself on the remote Island of Inishchloe, an idyllic location for him to live a quiet and tranquil life along with his subordinate Garda Jack Murphy and his romantic interest Rose Carroll. That is until strange occurrences and sightings of the 'Fetch' from Irish folklore begin to terrorise the resident Garda and disturb the remote island of Inishchloe.
