Murder Most Puzzling
改编自Parnell Hall的畅销小说系列“The Puzzle Lady Mysteries”。 冷清的集市小镇贝克伯里发生了一起离奇命案。当地警方对尸体上遗留的填字游戏百思不得其解。在案件毫无进展的情况下,他们无奈地求助于刚来贝克伯里不久的Cora Felton。Cora作为“字谜女士”的名声被认为能够帮助高级督察Hooper和贝克伯里警方解决小镇的第一起谋杀案。但古怪Cora并非自己声称的那样,当她投身到这起令小镇居民困惑的谋杀案中时,既结交了支持者,也迎来了反对者。

When a murder takes place in the sleepy market town of Bakerbury, the police are baffled by a crossword puzzle left on the body. With their case going nowhere, they turn reluctantly to Cora Felton, a recent arrival, whose fame as a newspaper puzzle writer suggests she can help DCI Hooper and the local police unravel the clue and solve the case.

It's Cora's birthday and she's fed up. It's been too quiet since she jailed The Graveyard Killer and she's itching for another mystery to solve, so Cora is thrilled when Becky hires her to investigate a case.

Wealthy businessman, Ray, and his dynamic wife Gloria, have sponsored Dennis Pride to play a gig in Bakerbury. Meanwhile, Cora is distracted by love, as she's wooed by a charming suitor, Gilbert. When Sherry says he seems too good to be true, it causes a rift between the women but plants a seed of doubt in Cora's mind.
