If you’re unfamiliar, True Detective burst onto the scene back in 2014 and quickly blew the collective minds of critics, audiences and awards shows with its gripping crime tale.

The series is an anthology with each new season featuring a new cast and a new crime.

Season 1 featured Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson as homicide detectives with the Louisiana State Police, investigating the murder of a sex worker in 1995.

Season 2 followed detectives Paul (Taylor Kitsch), Ray (Colin Farrell) and Ani (Rachel McAdams) in California after they discover the body of a corrupt city manager on the side of a highway.

Season 3 starred Mahershala Ali as detective Wayne Hays who investigated the disappearance of two children in the Ozarks over three decades.

What is the plot of True Detective season 4?

Season 4 of True Detective has the subtitle Night Country and follows two new detectives as they race to solve an eerie crime.

The new season takes place in the long winter of Alaska on an Arctic research station. Here’s the synopsis from Binge:

When the long winter night falls in Ennis, Alaska, the eight men who operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanish without a trace. To solve the case, detectives Liz Danvers and Evangeline Navarro must confront their pasts and the dark truths lying underneath the Arctic ice.

The first trailer for the new True Detective season gives us a very chilling (pun intended) look at a new crime and the detectives, who are at odds, attempting to solve it.
