As the synopsis reads, the episodes will see Annika lead the team at the "new specialist Marine Homicide Unit (MHU) that is tasked with investigating the unexplained, brutal, and seemingly unfathomable murders that wash up in the waterways of Scotland.
"Throughout the series, Annika makes the audience her confidante by breaking the fourth wall and sharing her wry observations on the case and her life, as she manages her brilliant yet unconventional team, and her equally brilliant yet complex teenage daughter."
The crime drama is available to watch on PBS

Will there be a series two of Nicola Walker's drama Annika?
There's yet to be confirmation of whether Annika could return for series two but given its popularity, we wouldn't be surprised! However, given there's not been an announcement – we suspect fans could be waiting a while for new episodes.
How can I watch Nicola Walker's Annika in the US?
Fans in the US are able to watch all six episodes on PBS Passport. Viewers who don't have a PBS Passport can look forward to a broadcast on the channel later in the year. Meanwhile, fans in the UK who missed the first broadcast on Alibi in 2021 can catch the episodes on Sky catch up.
