Myfanwy comes to realize that she’s an agent for a secret branch of the British government that handles people with supernatural abilities, and that someone is trying to kill her.
A supernatural series at Starz has bitten the dust.
Many fans of the novel took issue with he fact that the drama twisted the light, fantastical tone and made it gritty for TV, and The Rook ended Season 1 last summer with ratings that landed it in the bottom third of Starz’s nine dramas.
The Rook, which was based on the 2012 book of the same name by Daniel O’Malley, focused on Myfanwy (Emma Greenwell) who woke up near London’s Millennium Bridge with no memory and no way to explain why she’s surrounded by dead bodies.
