Based
on PD
James's best-selling novel, The Murder Room is set
on the edge
of Hampstead Heath in
London at the Dupayne
Museum. The Dupayne is a
family-run private museum housing a
collection devoted to
Britain between the wars.
Its most popular attraction is The
Murder Room, which features memorabilia of the period's
most gruesome real life murders. The founder's death has left the museum's
future in
doubt. His will stipulates that all three of his heirs must agree to
renew its charter. When the noncompliant
heir dies in a
suspicious fire, Commander Dalgliesh (Martin Shaw) is called to
handle the highly
sensitive investigation. The circumstances of the death
bear an unsettling similarity to
one of the Murder
Room's most notorious cases. The complicated case consumes most of
Dalgliesh's time, and my
scuttle his relationship with Emma before it's properly begun.
