She, along with eight other guests, is invited by a reclusive billionaire to a retreat at a remote and stunning location. "When one of the other guests is found dead, Darby must use all of her skills to prove it was murder against a tide of competing interests and before the killer takes another life," the synopsis continues. A Murder at the End of the World was created, written and directed by Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, who also served as executive producers, reports Surrey Live. Joining Emma and co-creator Brit in the star-studded cast are Clive Owen, Harris Dickinson, Alice Braga, Joan Chen, Raúl Esparza, Jermaine Fowler, Ryan J. Haddad and Pegah Ferydoni.

The drama currently boasts an impressive 89% critics rating on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes. The Independent said: "In its simpler moments, A Murder at the End of the World is a gripping, pacy thriller. It navigates its way through a century of detective influences, from Conan Doyle to Gillian Flynn, with an agility that leaves it never less than wholly watchable." Rolling Stone called it "a riveting murder mystery", while The Guardian praised the plot lines as "stylish" and "outstanding". Viewers also praised the series, with one IMDb user writing: "I love this show. It combines many intriguing elements, crime, thriller, technology and romance, with every twist and turn keeping you guessing and on the edge of your seat."
