Game Of Thrones star Gemma Whelan will star in a three-part police drama from the writer of Homeland.
ITV’s The Tower, based on Post Mortem, the first book in author Kate London’s Metropolitan series, will feature Whelan as Detective Sergeant Sarah Collins.
She is charged with investigating after a veteran beat cop and teenage girl fall to their deaths from a tower block in south-east London, leaving a five-year-old boy and rookie police officer Lizzie Griffiths on the roof.
