From the Masterpiece blog:

The second of Anthony Horowitz’s adaptation of his own bestselling Susan Ryeland/Atticus Pünd series, Moonflower Murders picks up in the aftermath of Magpie Murder’s riveting finale, as book editor-turned-sleuth (turned hotelier) Susan Ryeland is living in Crete with her longtime boyfriend, Andreas. But her idyll is disturbed by the shadow of a murder committed at a British country hotel eight years ago. Alan Conway, Susan’s prima donna former author, visited the hotel and wrote a novel based on what happened there—a novel that later led Cecily Treherne, who helps run the hotel, to believe that the wrong man is behind bars. Now Cecily has disappeared. Can Susan uncover the secret hidden in the book and find Cecily before it’s too late?

@Judaline I will need to check this out starting with the first one. I love murder mysteries. I like to watch Murder she Wrote.

I guess the date/time is my local channel (Cincinnati) so you'd best check your PBS channels-it could be earlier and you might miss it!

I've watched the first 2 episodes of Moonflower Murders and am really enjoying, lots of layers like with Magpie Murders which keeps me guessing, great scenery, architecture, cast & can't wait 'til next week to see more.

Still watching this, just finished episode 5. Again, lots of layers & Susan is amazing I think with the current plus the book. It ends this Sunday & I'm all in, loving the characters, setting, story but still not sure who, what, where so glad she'll figure it all out, I hope.
