Should You Try It: Moonflower Murders on PBS

As a seasoned gamer of mysteries and British TV series, I must say that Moonflower Murders is a delightful addition to my weekly viewing schedule. With a rich background in mystery novels and a penchant for British wit, I found myself immersed in this intricate web of puzzles from the very start.

As Autumn unfolds, the influx of fresh shows is picking up pace. With so many choices available, making the right one for your precious time can be tricky. That’s what this series aims to do – provide you with all the necessary details to make an educated choice. Today, we’re introducing a captivating mystery series that’s made its way from BBC to PBS.

Series: Moonflower Murders

Location: The first episode of the six-part mystery series was broadcast on PBS this past Sunday, with subsequent episodes to be shown every week on Masterpiece Mystery!

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to delve into the second installment of Anthony Horowitz’s Susan Ryeland series, the sequel to the captivating “Magpie Murders” that graced our screens in 2022. Starring the talented Leslie Manville, it was a must-watch on BBC One and BritBox, finding its place on PBS for the coveted “Masterpiece Mystery!” slot. Now, two years have passed, and I can hardly wait to unravel the intriguing mysteries that await in this new chapter.

In this latest installment, Horowitz once more takes the reins for adaptation, with Manville returning to the forefront. This time around, the ex-publisher Susan finds herself residing in Crete alongside her partner Andreas, managing a hotel. However, they’re encountering significant challenges, the business is struggling, funds are dwindling, and Susan yearns for the excitement of her past endeavors.

A duo hailing from England have arrived in search of assistance from Susan. Their beloved child has gone missing, and they suspect it may be linked to a book authored by Conway (Conleth Hill), which is based on a murder that transpired at their family-owned inn eight years back. Given Susan’s collaboration with Conway on the Atticus Pund series (Tim McMullan), they are hopeful that she can aid them in locating their daughter.

Despite her initial hesitation, Susan finds herself captivated. After delving into the book and engaging in a conversation with a representation of Pund, she feels compelled once more. She chooses to return to England and aid the couple, all while pocketing a $10,000 reward to replenish their finances.

Give it a go if you’re drawn to the captivating world of the book series, intrigued by Manville, or appreciate a well-crafted mystery.

One Man’s Opinion of Moonflower Murders

For decades, traditional mysteries have held a prominent place in British TV shows and literature. The structure in this case proves effective, and the source material boasts a dedicated fanbase. Given this, it’s logical that we can anticipate more of these enjoyable series. This format aligns perfectly with the PBS Sunday night mystery time slot.

I enjoyed Manville in the lead role. She seems to be having fun with the part and brings that to the series. The episode moved at a good pace, and I think she makes for an engaging protagonist. I also liked the way the pilot set up the story and the mystery. If you’re a fan of mysteries and are a fan of these kind of series, Moonflower Murders will hit the spot. I think it will be a good six-week journey.
