Inspector Morse - Masonic Mysteries

Morse finds himself the subject of a murder investigation when his friend, Beryl Newsome, is murdered at a rehearsal of the Magic Flute and he foolishly touches the murder weapon. Morse is suspended and DCI Bottomley, with DS Lewis assisting him, is put in charge of the case. Morse feels that he was set-up and looks to his past to see who, among the many criminals he arrested, might now be setting about seeking revenge. When someone scratches masonic symbols all over his car and he is reported for erratic driving, Morse wonders if Masons may somehow be involved. When a large number of his personal items are found in Beryl's apartment, Morse is placed under arrest.

    Superb vintage Morse

    Yet another superb Morse episode revoloving around the Masonic Opera 'The Magic Flute'. As murder and intrigue unfold, Morse sees a correlation between the events and the plot to the Magic Flute. Excellent acting as usual from the late John Thaw and Kevin Whately. Morse is in danger of losing his job and his sanity...will he prevail? Of course but I shall not give any of the plot away as it is so entwined it would be hard to unravel in so short a space. Luckily the Mason's do not come out tarnished by the story..

    All That We See, Or Seem...

    During the dress rehearsal of an amateur operatic production, a woman is stabbed to death. At the murder scene, Morse is found clutching the corpse and holding a knife... a classic episode of the Inspector Morse series finds the belicose chief inspector the chief suspect, as circumstantial evidence mounts. Unmissable,
