The four part series sees Coleman play detective Ember Manning, who investigates a fire which destroys a holiday home in Lancashire and its possible connection to a podcaster and journalist investigating a cold case concerning missing people, and a man in his 20s who is in a relationship with two underage girls.

However, the deeper that Manning becomes involved into the strange interconnected events, the more the case threatens to destroy her life and she is forced to re-evaluate everything she thought she knew about her past and the town that is her home.

Jenna said: "I’m delighted to be returning to the BBC to be a part of The Jetty, with Firebird Pictures at the helm, bringing the story of Ember Manning to life. I look forward to exploring Cat Jones’ darkly probing scripts, alongside Marialy Rivas’ eloquent vision."

The drama is set to air next year.
