This smart release from the detective series Murdoch Mysteries includes all 13 episodes from the show's fifth season, following the story of a 1900's detective who solves crimes using methods considered state of the art at the turn of the 20th century, like fingerprinting, blood testing, and trace evidence.
It is the time period in which this crime drama is cast that makes it so unusual. A focus on "new" technologies of the time is another unique and fascinating twist as we watch the prototype of a technology we know exists today cleverly woven into the story line of a crime-solving activity. Very clever! Our family was hooked on this series from the very first season!
What's great about it: The setting for this crime series is what makes it unique and highly entertaining.
