One of the things that Liar is known for is its mysterious marshes. The marshes in questions do exist and are located in Essex. The team travelled down to Tollesbury Marina on the Essex coast. The marina is located at the mouth of the River Blackwater – where it meets the North Sea – so it provides the perfect scenic backdrop for a mysterious killing.
