moonflower murders
Lesley Manville (World on Fire, Phantom Thread, Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris) and Tim McMullan (Patrick Melrose, Foyle’s War) return in Moonflower Murders, the sequel to Magpie Murders, as editor turned amateur sleuth Susan Ryeland (Manville) and world-famous fictional detective Atticus Pünd (McMullan).
Susan Ryeland has left publishing and is living in Crete with her long-time boyfriend, Andreas. But her idyll is disturbed by the shadow of a murder committed at a British country hotel eight years ago. Alan Conway visited the hotel and wrote a novel based on what happened there. Cecily Treherne, the young woman who helps run the hotel, read the book and believed the wrong man had been arrested. Now she has disappeared. Can Susan uncover the secret hidden in the book and find Cecily before it is too late? Moonflower Murders is based on the bestselling novel by Anthony Horowitz. -PBS
