Series five introduces eight thrilling new cases featuring dangerous villains that only Alexa Crowe (Lawless) can catch, but as always, she brings her friends and family along for the ride.
There’s tech whiz Madison (Ebony Vagulans – The Furies) who contributes her considerable IT know-how to the investigations and café owner Reuben (Joe Naufahu – Game of Thrones, Ghost in the Shell) is always there to lend a helping hand, plus Detective Harry (Rawiri Jobe – Shortland Street) remains a steady ally.
When Alexa’s bad boy brother Will (Martin Henderson – Virgin River, Grey’s Anatomy) drops by with a dilemma things are about to get complicated, and her cantankerous cat Chowder continues to stir up trouble in his own mischievous way.
The new series sees Alexa dive headfirst into a world of puzzling crime, from shady aquariums and elite cheerleading squads to creepy dolls and deadly island getaways. As buried secrets resurface, justice is never quite as simple as it seems, but one thing is certain – Alexa isn’t backing down.
But catching killers isn’t her only unfinished business, as a reunion with former police partner Jesse (Craig Parker – Spartacus, Xena: Warrior Princess) leaves the headstrong sleuth questioning herself: could he be the one that got away?
Embark on a new murder mystery adventure this Summer with more wit, warmth, drama and intrigue in the ‘charming, endlessly thrilling’ (Good Housekeeping) My Life is Murder Series 5.
