True Detective    USA    premiered in 2014

True Detective - Season 1: Trailer - Official HBO UK

A new drama series,

True Detective focuses on Martin Hart (Woody Harrelson)

and “Rust” Cohle (Matthew McConaughey),

two detectives and former partners

who worked in Louisiana’s Criminal Investigation Division

in the mid-1990s.

In 2012, for reasons not immediately revealed,

the two are interviewed separately by investigators

about their most notorious case:

the macabre 1995 murder of a prostitute

by a possible serial killer with disturbing occult leanings.

As they look back on the case,

Hart and Cohle’s personal backstories and often-strained relationship

become a major focal point.
