BiographyBrent Sexton (born August 12, 1967) is an American actor best known for his roles in the television series Bosch, The Killing, Life, and Deadwood. He has guest starred in several other television series, such as The Expanse, Justified, That's Life, Birds of Prey, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and Judging Amy. He has also appeared in several motion pictures, such as In the Valley of Elah, Flightplan, Radio, and A.I. Artificial Intelligence.

In 2006, Sexton, along with the cast of Deadwood, was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award.

In 2022, Sexton was denied a role in the movie Manhunt due to his refusal to get vaccinated against the deadly Covid-19 virus. He asked for an exemption from the studio, which was denied, and he sued claiming discrimination, invasion of privacy, refusal to engage in an interactive process and accommodate him. The case of Sexton v. Apple Studios was appealed to California's Second District, which found the studio was within their right not to cast Sexton in the movie because of the deadly risk posed to others. In doing so, the Court said the following: "Sexton’s position boils down to his claim that he had a right to impose a potentially deadly risk on coworkers so he could act in Manhunt. No precedent supports this claim."

True to Val McDermid's iconic character, DS Karen Pirie is a young and fearless Scottish investigator with a quick mouth and tenacious desire for the truth.

When teenager Rosie Duff was found brutally murdered in the Scottish university town of St Andrews in 1996, suspicion fell on the three drunken students who were discovered at the scene of the crime, claiming to have found her body. But with a lack of forensic evidence, no charges were brought and the police investigation floundered.

Twenty-five years on, someone appears to be willing to risk everything to keep the secrets surrounding the case hidden. Do the three men know more than they previously revealed? How flawed was the original investigation? And can Karen uncover the truth of what happened to Rosie that fateful night?
