Magpie Murders
CrimeDramaMystery44 min per episode
A book editor is handed the unfinished manuscript of a popular murder mystery, and the missing final chapters quickly become a problem of their own. As Susan Ryeland reads, the novel’s 1950s detective story unfolds around Atticus Pünd, a sharp investigator picking through a village full of grudges, secrets, and reasons to kill. But the farther Susan gets into the manuscript, the more the fiction starts to point back to trouble in the present. What begins as a search for an ending turns into a second mystery, with clues buried both in the pages and in the world outside them.
