Years past, Detective Mike Shepherd (Neill Rea – Go Girls, The Warrior’s Way) rolled into the picturesque, rural township of Brokenwood in his vintage car, filled with a collection of country music that would be the envy of many – and never departed. Series 11 now brings us back to the idyllic charm of small-town existence, where networks of deceit, ambition, and hidden dark truths lurk within the shadows.

The fresh installment reunites the skilled investigators from Brokenwood, including Mike Shepherd (Rea), Kristin Sims (Fern Sutherland, known for The Almighty Johnsons, A Mistake), and Daniel Chalmers (Jarod Rawiri, famed for Boy, Shortland Street). They delve into their most puzzling cases yet. In the mix is Gina Kadinksy (Cristina Ionda, recognized in Out of Season, Filthy Rich), who employs unique strategies to crack the town’s darkest enigmas with a touch of warmth, friendship, and dry wit.

In the thrilling latest installment, Brokenwood, New Zealand’s deadliest town, uncovers a fresh batch of mysterious crimes. Ranging from an ’80s musician haunted by a deceased groupie, to a school trivia night turned explosive, with séances, deadly chandeliers, and a science teacher’s unexpected ziplining mishap. Even Santa Claus drops in, as the bizarre Frodo family (portrayed by Karl Willetts, known for his roles in “The Power of the Dog” and “Evil Dead”) finds themselves entangled in a lethal identity theft case.

Don’t miss out on another round of captivatingly sinister crimes, small-town secrets, and thrilling surprises with “The Brokenwood Mysteries” this October!)
