Hetty Wainthropp Investigates: The Complete Collection

Armed with little more than a fully loaded handbag and prodigious common sense, acclaimed actress Patricia Routledge (Keeping Up Appearances, The Importance of Being Earnest) captivates mystery fans as Henrietta “Hetty” Wainthropp, a matronly gumshoe with a nose for business—other people’s business. Lancashire’s answer to Jessica Fletcher takes on cases involving mafiosi, missing persons and murder, assisted by her eager teenage sidekick Geoffrey (Dominic Monaghan, Lost, Lord of the Rings), and doting hubby—and housekeeper—Robert (Derek Benfield, Rumpole of the Bailey, Coronation Street). Her old-fashioned intuition and unfailing compassion make Hetty a detective to be reckoned with—and to cherish. Now you can capture Hetty’s entire sleuthing career in one complete set, as well as Missing Persons, the feature-length drama that started it all, based on the David Cook novel. As seen on the PBS series Mystery!.

Patricia Routledge continues her busy life in the British theatre-her first love and says she can't even spell the word "retirement."
