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.

  THE LAST ANNIVERSARY  

FIRST TRAILER FOR THE NEW TV SERIES

Binge and BBC have released first trailer for their new six episode comedy series THE LAST ANNIVERSARY set on Scribbly Gum Island, a place of many secrets. The one that made it famous – the disappearance of a young couple decades ago – might have made the island a destination for true crime tourists but when it comes to secrets, the three generations of women that call Scribbly Gum home hold far more. When Sophie Honeywell (Teresa  Palmer) inherits a house on the island, left only to her by her ex-boyfriend’s great-aunt Connie, it’s the fresh start she’s craving, despite the unwelcome reception she receives on arrival. Single and approaching 40, Sophie is intrigued by something else Connie left her – a promise that she might finally find the man of her dreams on the Island. But perhaps what Sophie needs is an island full of women instead? Miranda Richardson also stars in the series that will air on BBC, Binge and Foxtel from March 27th based on a Liane Moriarty novel.
