All is not what it seems behind the well-trimmed hedges of Midsomer County. From blackmail to haunted houses and murder, cozy country villages reveal sinister secrets in these British television mysteries, inspired by the novels of Caroline Graham.
The House in the Woods - Schoolchildren believe that Winyard, a secluded and long-abandoned house, is haunted. Eerie lights and mysterious noises seem to confirm their belief. But when a young couple looking to buy the property gets garroted, Barnaby recruits Detective Constable Ben Jones to help him catch a very corporeal killer.
Dead Letters - In Midsomer Barton, tragedy intrudes on the celebration of Oak Apple Week when Marion Slade, the mother of a former festival queen, drowns in a stream. Did she commit suicide, grieving for her deceased daughter? Or was she murdered? In ferreting out the truth, Barnaby uncovers dark secrets lurking beneath the gaiety.
Vixen's Run - On the verge of making a dramatic announcement at a family gathering, Sir Freddy Butler drops dead, apparently as the result of a lifetime of gluttony. He leaves a widow, two ex-wives, a dotty brother, an heir apparent, and a vulgar daughter-in-law-all with good reason to want him dead And the casualties don't stop there.
Down Among the Dead Men - Investigating the murder of Martin Barrett, Barnaby and Jones discover that the government accountant led a far from boring life. Apparently, the dead man had dug up dirty secrets on people from miles around and used them for blackmail. But which of Barrett's many targets eventually made him a victim?
