A case traversing Kingston and Jamaica forces detective Millie-Jean Black to confront her demons
By leaving Scotland Yard and upping sticks to serve on the Jamaican Police Force, detective Millie-Jean Black (Tamara Lawrance) thought she'd left the ghosts of her past thousands of miles away.

Her reasons for packing it in and returning to the country of her birth to work harrowing missing persons cases are manifold. Part of it was out of obligation to her sister Hibiscus (Chyna McQueen), a bohemian outcase with a penchant for getting into trouble, but there were professional motivations too.
Millie-Jean's hyper-defensive reaction to Luke's appearance hints at skeletons, but in the meantime she and her partner Curtis (Gershwyn Eustache Jnr) have a major operation on their hands.
Luke has been working on a case that traverses both of Millie-Jean's stomping grounds, and not by coincidence. The twist at the end is described as 'outstanding', so you're in for a treat.
The drama, created by Booker Prize-winning novelist Marlon James, who adapted the show from his own story, comprises five episodes. Read on to see how you can watch "Get Millie Black" from anywhere in the world.
