Welcome to this edition of the Passport newsletter. We have just added a new comedic drama, which is actually the follow-up series to Draper's Tours Mysteries! With a stellar all-star cast, Murder, They Hope is a fun series that is sure to delight.
For our historians, we have Secrets of the Dead featuring Althorp and the ancestral story of a medieval village that predates the grand estate.
Thrill seekers will enjoy the intense pacing of Kidnap & Ransom, and if it's comfort you are seeking, we have a lovely tribute to Norm Abram in The House that Norm Built.

Murder, They Hope
In the follow-up series to Draper's Tours Mysteries, former coach tour operators-turned-sleuths Gemma and Terry are back on the case to solve a host of bizarre new crimes. Big crimes, big laughs, and a woefully inadequate investigative ability make this series a comedic gem! Binge Now.

International hostage negotiator Dominic King's motto, "Never Promise, Never Lie," has, until now, meant 100% success. Facing the most challenging cases of his career, King must race against the clock with lives at stake. Please note, adults only for this adventure due to strong themes. Binge Now.
The House that Norm Built
