IN THE SECOND SEASON OF THE SERIES
Book investigates the world of spiritualism when he’s asked to help solve the mysterious case involving medium, Harold Sneed (Watkins). Off Savile Row, Bliss asks Book to help in a puzzling murder at a gentleman’s outfitters - the elderly tailor Maxie Kleinmann is keen to confess to the murder, but the evidence doesn’t quite stack up and points to something much more complex and sinister. And Book and Jack are sent to the seemingly charming German village of Würl by the mysterious ‘E’ to thwart a thieving Duchess (Richardson) at Christmas time. However, festivities take a deadly turn when Book and Jack uncover secrets of their own, past and present, in an ominous castle brimming with plausible murder suspects. Book’s close association to the police continues to be not without its personal dangers and his lavender marriage with childhood best friend Trottie, is threatened by debonair Colonel Winters (Graves). Marrying post-war nostalgia with the reckless and life affirming atmosphere of the times, Bookish is a stylish period detective drama with a difference

  1. Interesting that you used cosy to describe the crime series..gotta find the season one to watch. I have been binge-watching lots of old Brit films and series on youtube..really find them pretty good. Have you watched Keeping Up Appearance before? Bet you would enjoy it.

    1. There are many cosy crime series, it is a whole subgenre, it is set in a cosy bookshop and does not have gory crimes. Season one streams on Sky which you have in Germany. I watched Keeping Up Appearances during college, it did not air here before that, but then I watched it all on a Bosnian channel in the afternoons after lectures.

    1. I have not watched it. I started The Other Bennet Sister last week because my husband Laurie Davidson is in it.
