Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd (
Neill Rea) has been working in the small town of Brokenwood, New Zealand for some time. He still is having a time adjusting from the big city to the country life. His assistant Kristin Sims (
Fern Sutherland) has been a big help but well let’s face it they are learning how to work with each other. Now don’t get me wrong they’re relationship is getting better each and every day, but it could be better.
Brokenwood is a very quiet and peaceful place on the surface but hidden beneath is a place that can overflow with passion at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately, when these passions come to the surface this quaint little village can come up with some horrendous crimes. Brokenwood is a very beautiful place to look at. The scenery is out of this world and the people are very friendly but it does get ugly when the time is right.
This collection of stories has to deal with a parachutist who falls to his death due to the tampering of his parachute. Another story is going to deal with the murder of the owner of a Victorian re-enactment village. Now, the owner was rather eccentric to say the least but it turns out to be a very interesting case. The third story is about some farmers feuding over some honey bees. Yes, that’s right, it seems no one knows who actually owns the rights of the bees and it turns rather ugly. Finally, the last story deals with a nursing home filled with suspects who all suffer from dementia. It is an interesting look at the struggles with old age and murder.
Acorn brings this wonderful group of stories to DVD on March 27th, 2018. The quality of the DVD is excellent and the sights and sounds are perfect. This DVD will definitely add a certain joy of crime entertainment to that collection of yours. You will enjoy sitting back and watching the goings on of this quiet little town that every once in awhile will erupt with violence and murder.
