MOONFLOWER MURDERS: MASTERPIECE MYSTERY!

Lesley Manville returns as book editor turned sleuth Susan Ryeland and Tim McMullan as famous literary detective Atticus Pünd in Anthony Horowitz's Moonflower Murders. Moonflower Murders premieres on Masterpiece Mystery!  PBS next Sunday, September 15 at 9/8c. When Susan Ryeland's idyll in Crete is disturbed by the shadow of a murder committed eight years ago, can she uncover the secret hidden in Alan Conway’s book before it's too late?

Like the Magpie Murders prequel, Moonflower Murders was adapted by author Anthony Horowitz. 

I've seen the four episodes, and this productions is terrific -- good story, wonderful actors, such a great mix of time periods and storyline. Exactly what we've come to expect of this great show, based on Anthony Horowitz's novel. 

 

FYI: Magpie Murders is still available on PBS Passport. If you haven't seen Magpie Murders, I suggest you catch up on this show this week before watching Moonflower Murders. You don't have to, but it will enrich your viewing. You could always read the books by Anthony Horowitz, too. Such fun!
