is driven by a murderous obsession. Capaldi described him as \u201csomeone who\u2019s fallen through the cracks a little bit and is responsible for a number of very disturbing crimes\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The series follows Raine\u2019s Lucy, a woman who is woken every night by terrifying visions at exactly 3:33am, known as the devil\u2019s hour.<\/p>\n<p>The official synopsis says: \u201cHer eight-year-old son is withdrawn and emotionless. Her mother speaks to empty chairs. Her house is haunted by the echoes of a life that isn\u2019t her own.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Lucy\u2019s name is inexplicably connected to a string of brutal murders in the area, the answers that have evaded her all these years will finally come into focus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the synopsis teases that Capaldi\u2019s Gideon becomes \u201cthe prime target of a police manhunt led by compassionate detective Ravi Dhillon, played by Nikesh Patel\u201d.<\/p> <p>Capaldi said that Gideon \u201chas a plan\u201d, explaining: \u201cIt\u2019s a very clever and compulsive plan. And he is scared, he\u2019s poor, he\u2019s lost, but he belongs to the night.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJess plays a character who Gideon has absolutely targeted. He is coming for her, he is coming for her child, he will not be stopped. But the reason that he\u2019s doing it is not what you think\u2026 or maybe it is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>The Devil\u2019s Hour will stream on Amazon Prime Video.
