When Philadelphia narcotics detective Doyle Carrick loses his mother and step-father within weeks of each other, he gains a twenty-day suspension for unprofessional behavior and instructions to lay low at the unfamiliar house he's inherited in rural Pennsylvania.

Feeling restless and out of place, Doyle is surprised to find himself falling for his new neighbor, Nola Watkins, who's under pressure to sell her organic farm to a large and mysterious development company. He's more surprised to see high-powered drug dealers driving the small-town roads — dealers his bosses don't want to hear about.

But when the drug bust Doyle's been pushing for goes bad and the threats against Nola turn violent, Doyle begins to discover that what's growing in the farmland around Philadelphia is much deadlier than anything he could have imagined …

In the small, up-and-coming town of Donnington, a woman is found at her kitchen table — gun to her side and the top of her head missing. It could be suicide. It could also be murder. And — if Inspector Beverley Wharton wants to save her career — she has until the end of the week to find out which.

Meanwhile, with his solicitor girlfriend Helena undergoing a difficult pregnancy and with their fiscal affairs threatening, pathologist Dr John Eisenmenger takes on a job as a locum at the local hospital. It's dreary work until the body of an old, heavy drinker arrives at his table. Death by natural causes, the coroner declares. No suspicious circumstances. It could just be his imagination — a trivial inkling — but Eisenmenger thinks otherwise.

When another suspiciously natural death is added to the mix and his professional life suddenly jeopardized, Eisenmenger turns to the equally troubled Inspector Wharton for help. What then follows is a disturbing tale of drugs, fraud, adultery and multiple murders with rather too many connections to a certain doctor's surgery …

Josie and her best friend, Brad, are next in line at Greenville's famous pastrami-sandwich-producing hotspot — Danny's Deli. Their highly anticipated lunch break turns stale when employee Gordy Fitzgerald's body is found in the freezer. Word soon surfaces that Gordy had been stabbed shortly before being found — and the weapon is missing. Locals are devastated by the discovery, and the amount of speculation on the killer's identity is far greater than the holes on a block of Swiss cheese. Who killed the beloved sandwich wizard?

Josie's untamed curiosity is determined to answer just that. Along the way, she has a few tasks at hand: maintaining a blog, coming to terms with her feelings for Tony, and keeping up with the shenanigans of her corgi, Petey. All this, and finding a killer. Shouldn't be too hard. Living in a small town like Greenville, there's no place anyone can hide.

Not even a murderer … right?

Balancing this dark undertaking and her relationship with a local policeman, Maeve will have to walk the fine line between justice and revenge carefully if she hopes to prevail.

Telemystery News: Production on Fox's Prison Break 2016 to begin in April

Casting is nearly complete for the upcoming production of Prison Break, a 9-episode "special event" for Fox television. The original series ranks as one of our personal favorites.

Cast members Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell, and Sarah Wayne Callies return as, respectively, brothers Michael and Lincoln Burrows and Dr. Sara Tancredi. At the end of the series run in 2009, Michael — knowing he's dying from an inoperable brain tumor — sacrifices himself to save Sara, so it was a neat trick for the screenwriters to come up with a way that he actually lived. And that's the premise of this new limited series. "When clues surface suggesting that Michael may be alive, Sara teams with Lincoln to engineer the series' biggest escape ever."

Joining the cast are many of the series' regulars, including T-Bag (Robert Knepper), C-Note (Rockmond Dunbar) and Sucre (Amaury Nolasco).

Production is expected to begin next month in Vancouver, with a premiere date either late this year or early next.

Just because she can see the dead doesn't mean Verity Long wants to spend her days hunting ghosts. Instead, she's over the moon to land a marketing job at the local bank … until she finds her new boss dead in the vault. Even her ghost friend, Frankie, knows that's no way to start a career.

Relieved to let the police take charge, Verity steps aside, bound and determined to keep her ghost sightings to herself. But when she learns the main suspect in the murder is a very crooked, very dead mobster, Verity knows it's up to her to solve the case.

She teams up with her ghostly gangster buddy Frankie, as well as the irresistible and charming Ellis, as the three of them search haunted mob hideouts, hidden passageways, and historic cemeteries for the facts behind the heist of the century — and a modern-day motive for murder.

Too bad uncovering the truth could very well make Verity the next victim …

The lives of the Barretts, a normal suburban New England family, are torn apart when fourteen-year-old Marjorie begins to display signs of acute schizophrenia.

To her parents' despair, the doctors are unable to stop Marjorie's descent into madness. As their stable home devolves into a house of horrors, they reluctantly turn to a local Catholic priest for help. Father Wanderly suggests an exorcism; he believes the vulnerable teenager is the victim of demonic possession. He also contacts a production company that is eager to document the Barretts' plight. With John, Marjorie's father, out of work for more than a year and the medical bills looming, the family agrees to be filmed, and soon find themselves the unwitting stars of The Possession, a hit reality television show. When events in the Barrett household explode in tragedy, the show and the shocking incidents it captures become the stuff of urban legend.

Fifteen years later, a bestselling writer interviews Marjorie's younger sister, Merry. As she recalls those long ago events that took place when she was just eight years old, long-buried secrets and painful memories that clash with what was broadcast on television begin to surface — and a mind-bending tale of psychological horror is unleashed, raising vexing questions about memory and reality, science and religion, and the very nature of evil.
