}}Low Winter Sun is an American crime drama television series that aired on AMC from August 11 to October 6, 2013, for one season consisting of ten episodes. The series was developed by Chris Mundy and starred Mark Strong and Lennie James. It is based upon the 2006 British two-part miniseries of the same name which also starred Strong in the same role.[1] Filmed and set in Detroit, Michigan, the series follows detectives Frank Agnew and Joe Geddes after they murder a corrupt cop and attempt to cover it up, and explores organized crime in Detroit. The series received generally mixed reviews and AMC announced in December 2013 that it had canceled the series.[2]

Low Winter Sun was reported to create 245 jobs and spend approximately $26 million in the state.[8]

|ShortSummary=Prior to McCann's funeral, Geddes recalls the night he witnessed McCann butchering Bobek. McCann tells him to kill Katia and dump her body in the river. Geddes takes her instead across the Canada–US border and releases her to another man after telling her not to return to Detroit nor contact Agnew. He then regrets not killing her. Raymond LeFevre (Richard Goteri) is questioned by Geddes and Agnew after he claims to have seen two men put McCann's car in the river. He cites some pertinent details, some not released to the press, but because of his responses to some of Agnew and Geddes' questions and skeletons in his closet, he is deemed to not be credible, though his arrival pushes the homicide investigation forward. After Alexander Skelos (Alon Moni Aboutboul) gets called in for questioning, he goes to tell Maya not to use The International bar as their crime hub. She voices her concerns about him to Damon.
