PIKEY SERIES

PIKEY SERIES
By Mark Deuce

GENRE: Military/War, Crime
LOGLINE:

In the rain-soaked chaos of 1919 Dublin, a battle-hardened Irish war hero and his scarred siblings return from the trenches to avenge a family massacre by ruthless Russian gangsters, forging a criminal empire amid revolutionaries, British enforcers, and their own haunted demons.

SYNOPSIS:

"From the trenches they survived... now the streets will bleed."

Genre: Historical Crime Drama

Setting: Post-World War I Ireland, primarily Dublin, with flashbacks to the trenches of France and excursions to coastal areas. The series captures the raw turmoil of the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921), blending gritty street-level gang warfare with the political upheaval of revolutionaries fighting British rule. Expect rain-slicked cobblestone streets, smoky pubs filled with whispers of rebellion, and the constant threat of betrayal from all sides—English enforcers, Russian immigrants seeking new turf, and Irish nationalists demanding loyalty.

Tone: Dark, visceral, and unflinching, much like Peaky Blinders, with sharp dialogue, intense violence, moral ambiguity, and a haunting soundtrack mixing traditional Irish folk with brooding orchestral scores. Themes include the scars of war, family bonds tested by trauma, the cost of ambition, and the clash of old-world traditions with emerging criminal empires.
