Sister Boniface Mysteries: Series 1 (2022)

Description

From the makers of ‘Father Brown’ and ‘Shakespeare and Hathaway – Private Investigators’ comes a light-hearted murder mystery series starring a Vespa driving, crime solving Catholic nun: Sister Boniface (Lorna Watson). It’s the 1960s and police forensics are rudimentary. Luckily the residents of Great Slaughter, nestled deep in the British countryside, have a secret weapon. Sister Boniface. This nun might be predisposed to forgive – but she’s also one hell of an amateur detective.
If there’s evidence to be found, Boniface will find it, with a little help from dashing maverick DI Sam Gillespie (Max Brown) and buttoned-up Bermudan DS Felix Livingstone (Jerry Iwu), who’s horrified to be stuck in the eccentric world of Great Slaughter. A corpse is found stuffed inside a dummy at the local fair; tragedy hits a visiting TV crew; and a gruesome discovery is made in Edie’s beloved allotment plot. It’s down to Sister Boniface – and a few hasty Hail Marys – to save the day.
