Tabu (2017) opens with the return of James Keziah Delaney, a man thought lost to the world. When he arrives in 1814 London, he brings with him more than a claim to his late father’s shipping empire—he carries secrets, scars, and an aura that unsettles everyone around him. His presence feels like a storm rolling into a quiet harbor, disrupting the balance of power across the city.
The series builds its intrigue on Delaney’s mysterious past. Whispers of his time in Africa follow him like a shadow, hinting at experiences that shaped him into a figure both feared and respected. His inheritance quickly becomes a battleground for corporations, politicians, and enemies who would rather see him vanish again—this time permanently.
One of the show’s strongest elements is its atmosphere. London appears grim, smoky, and filled with hidden agendas. Every alley seems to pulse with danger, and every drawing room conversation carries sharp undercurrents. The world feels raw and alive, echoing the brutality and ambition of the era. This moody environment becomes the perfect stage for Delaney’s quiet fury and strategic brilliance.
Tabu thrives on tension—personal, political, and emotional. Delaney moves through the city like a man with nothing to lose, yet everything about him suggests purpose. His relationships are complex, marked by betrayal, loyalty, and the weight of old wounds. Each episode reveals just enough to deepen the mysteries surrounding him.
