The premise of this thriller seems outlandish. Yet, Black Bird is actually inspired by true events.

The series centres on Jimmy, a young man whose promising future vanishes after a series of bad decisions land him in a minimum-security prison for 10 years. There, he is given the chance of a lifetime: if he's willing to enter a prison for the criminally insane and forge a connection with a suspected serial killer, he can walk free.

Jimmy agrees, but life behind bars is no picnic. Additionally, getting close to a psychopath and figuring out when he's lying is complicated, to say the least.

Adapted from Jimmy Keene's memoir by Shutter Island author Dennis Lehane, Black Bird has a strong cast and the kind of premise that immediately grabs your attention. If you're looking for a compelling true crime drama to get lost in, you're in the right place.
