What to Read Next
Kate London’s novel, *The Tower*, draws inspiration from her earlier *Metropolitan* series, which delves into the worlds of police crime and corruption.
The first season centers around DS Sarah Collins and DC Steve Bradshaw as they investigate the suspicious deaths of a young girl and a police officer who fell from a tower in southeast London.
The more Collins investigates, the more she suspects PC Lizzie Adama, who was on the roof of the tower and then vanished, is hiding something.
Their boss, Detective Inspector Kieran Shaw (played by Scanlan), is keeping a secret connected to the murder victim, Farah (Lola Elsokari).
In Seasons 2 and 3, the stories take different paths. Season 2 centers on Collins reopening an old case about a missing teenager, while Season 3 focuses on a violent attack on a young woman.
The Tower has a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes out of 5 reviews.
Reviewers are impressed with Whelan’s acting and the show’s simple, understated storytelling.
According to a review in *Decider*, *The Tower* effectively presents its main mystery without unnecessary scenes, and actor Niamh Whelan delivers a powerful and moving performance as Collins.
Elsewhere, The Herald praised the understated approach to tackle systemic issues.
The show’s power came from its nuanced approach. It tackled important issues like sexism and racism within the police force, but did so with subtlety rather than being overly forceful or preachy, according to the review.
The Tower season 1 is streaming on Disney+ in the UK. All seasons are available on ITVX.
The new edition of Living Legends is here! Buy Gaga in newsagents or online, priced at just £8.99.
