About

Smart and engaging, this award-winning mystery series centers on brilliant detective William Murdoch, a pioneer of crime-solving technologies in Victorian Toronto. Still reeling from a personal and professional crisis, Murdoch has taken up gold prospecting at the start of Season 5. Soon he's back in detective mode, helping a woman accused of murder; investigating an Egyptian curse; experimenting with time travel; and crossing paths with Jack London, Henry Ford, and his idol, Alexander Graham Bell. Meanwhile, Dr. Ogden hires a feisty new coroner, Dr. Emily Grace, who catches the eye of Constable Crabtree.
