Coming soon
Meet Jackson Harlow, a journalist who won't stop digging. Even when it destroys him.
The Harlow Files is the chronicle of Jackson Harlow, an investigative journalist in New Orleans obsessed with exposing government corruption and injustice. Each story—each case—peels back layers of deception, power, and moral complexity. A man driven by grief and obsession, Jackson won’t stop digging even when it destroys him.
Jackson Harlow is a skilled investigator with a dangerous gift: he can read people better than anyone, sense when someone’s lying before they even speak. He’s also a man carrying trauma—the government system he fights destroyed his family a decade ago, and he’s spent every year since making sure no one else loses what he lost.
Season One: The Case of the Grinning Golly
Jackson’s first case: A beloved antique shop owner, Dolly Mercier, is murdered in her shop. Jackson is determined to find her killer. But the investigation spirals into something far darker than a simple crime.
The suspects multiply. The motives tangle. Political radicals become unlikely allies. A saboteur threatens his investigation in ways that threaten everything he’s built.
Eight episodes. One murder. A mystery where nothing is what it seems.
