Crime is a six-part drama based on the 2008 novel of the same name by Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh, who also adapted his work for the screen. The story follows Dougray Scott as lead detective and troubled addict DI Ray Lennox, who is looking into the disappearance of a 13-year-old girl.
Dougray Scott (Mission: Impossible 2) leads the cast as DI Lennox, who is leading the investigation into the missing schoolgirl - and must confront the "demons" that previously consumed his life.
When 13-year-old Britney Hamil is kidnapped from an Edinburgh street, DI Lennox pushes himself to "breaking point" to locate her.
"He is driven by the secret, long hidden within him, of an abuse that touched his very soul," reads the official synopsis. "This detective inspector is not content with solving crimes, he sees the world in black and white, his mission to root out evil wherever he senses it.
"But passion such as this comes at a cost and we watch as one by one, Lennox’s relationships grow distant and steadily are replaced by those old false friends, a descent into the bottle and the powder beckons."
The rest of the main cast is as follows:
• Dougray Scott as Detective Inspector Ray Lennox
• Joanna Vanderham as Detective Sergeant Amanda Drummond
• Ken Stott as Chief Superintendent Bob Toal
• Angela Griffin as Trudi Lowe, Lennox's girlfriend
• Jamie Sives as Detective Inspector Dougie Gillam
• Michael Abubakar as Detective Constable Stuart McCorkel
• John Simm as Gareth Horsborough aka Mr Confectioner
