The Brokenwood Mysteries - All Seasons
Season 1
Prime's new local whodunnit series, The Brokenwood Mysteries, begins when two fishermen find the body of a local farmer in the river, and Detective Inspector Mike Shepherd is sent to the small rural town of Brokenwood to investigate the death with local Detective Kristin Sims. Is this the suicide of a man guilty of his own wife's murder or is he the victim of foul play? Like Agatha Christie's Poirot, Shepherd has his own rather ‘unique' ways of unravelling the mystery, much to the exasperation of Sims. Before the credits roll in each feature length episode Shepherd will have his culprit, but with more red herrings than a Scandinavian canning factory, you'll be kept guessing right to the very end!
Season 2
Brokenwood: Population 5000 and declining – slowly – one by one or, two by two depending on the murder rate that week.
In Brokenwood, an early morning mist will often give way to a glorious day. As far as towns go it's bucolic, pastoral yet curious. All-in-all, Brokenwood is a pretty nice place to live… if you watch your back and sleep with one eye open.
As a brand new season begins, Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd is no longer the new guy in town. With the conscientious Detective Kristin Sims and the enthusiastic Detective Sam Breen, as well as pathologist, Dr Gina Kadinsky, at his side, Shepherd is now firmly ensconced in his new home town of Brokenwood.
