Single-Handed (2007)

In the secluded west of Ireland, Dublin transplant Jack Driscoll embraces his new duty as Garda Sergeant, a position freshly vacated by his father, Gerry. Jack's first substantial case plunges him into the eerie silence of a remote caravan where a young woman's life has prematurely ended. As Jack grapples with the tight-lipped local community, what initially appears as an accidental death gradually reveals its sinister undertones. Caught in a twisted labyrinth of blackmail, sexual exploitation, and violence, Jack discovers the involvement of individuals close to home. These include a farmer tied to the caravan's location, a renowned local hotelier, his father's lifelong friend, and a notorious builder known for his violent tendencies. His dogged pursuit of the truth unearths past offenses, drawing him into an uneasy standoff with his new Inspector and Gerry, who may possess the crucial key to unraveling the enigma. Amidst the dark turmoil, a beacon of hope emerges in Jack's budding romance with Saoirse, a young nurse from Dublin visiting her wealthy uncle, local builder Tommy Gallagher. As she's inexplicably drawn to the place and its mysteries, so too is she drawn to Jack. Their intertwined destinies form the heart of this riveting drama, where the search for truth can often lead to the most shocking of revelations.
