Morning Show Mysteries

A poisoned television executive turns attention toward Billie and her restaurant. The opening film gives her a reason to investigate before she has a history of solving cases: her livelihood and the people she works with are under suspicion.

A body in a guest chef's rental car brings the morning programme into another murder inquiry. Billie has to judge the celebrity behind the broadcast persona while her existing connection with Ian complicates working alongside his investigation.

A former restaurant colleague who became a television star is accused of murder. Billie's concern for her friend draws her into an inquiry shaped by blackmail and the difference between a public career and a private life.

A supermarket owner's death leads Billie and Ian toward a possible pattern of killings. Compared with the television-centred cases, the investigation spreads into another part of the local food business as their personal relationship develops.

Billie's friend arrives to redecorate the television studio, but the death of that friend's twin sister turns a work connection into a personal case. Familiar people become suspects, giving Billie less distance from the investigation.

A discovery in an old friend's basement leads Billie into a case connected to powerful local people. Colin Lawrence joins as Detective Tyrell Price, so expect a change in her police partnership after the earlier Ian Jackson films.
