The third season of Vera has not even aired in the UK and yet word is out that the crime drama, based on characters created by Ann Cleeves, has been renewed by ITV for a fourth season of four episodes. (All will almost certainly be original screenplays, as the existing books in the series have already been adapted as episodes of the first two seasons. And speaking of the source material, the "Vera Stanhope" mysteries are finally going to be available here in the US, though not in order. Minotaur Books will publish the fourth in the series, Silent Voices, in May 2013; it was adapted as the second episode of the second season. More about the book, below.)
Production on the new season is expected to begin this Summer on location in Northumberland.

Silent Voices
Ann Cleeves
A Vera Stanhope Mystery (4th in series)
When Vera finds the body of a woman in the sauna of her local gym, she wonders briefly if, for once in her life, she's uncovered a simple death of natural causes. But when a closer inspection reveals bruises around the victim's throat, Vera's team start their investigation. Vera and her colleagues soon uncover details in the victim's past that may explain her untimely death. But Vera knows from experience that there's no such thing as a simple case, and this one gets more baffling by the minute.
