Want to watch Karen Pirie online? Here's where you need to go.

Karen Pirie is a three-part ITV crime miniseries based on a series of books by legendary Scottish crime writer, Val McDermid. Like the books, the series follows the titular young Scottish detective as she tackles a range of crimes.

Karen Pirie's first season is based on The Distant Echo, the first book in the series and will see her tackling a brutal cold case — the murder of Rosie Duff — twenty-five years on from the original attack. 

No charges were ever made over Rosie's death, even though there was suspicion surrounding a group of drunken students who said they were the ones who found her body. In the present, Karen is placed in charge of the cold case review, where she will uncover flaws in the initial investigation and resistance from other officers as she tries to find out what really happened back in 1996.
