The Moth Catcher (Vera Stanhope)

Product Information

With Joe now promoted, Vera and her new sergeant, DS Aiden Healy, investigate a fatal explosion at a caravan park that killed Deena Viner, sister of the park's owner, Jim. The mystery deepens when Vera and Aiden discover that Deena died in the caravan before it blew up. Nobody does eerie like Ann Cleeves... It's a delight to watch [Vera] exceed people's expectations and to watch as the tiny details she notices add up to the big revelation." Vera is called to the University of Northumberland when Jamie Marshall, a young, promising journalism student, plummets to his death from the top of a disused science building. With no eyewitnesses and no immediate leads, Vera turns to friends and family to glean all she can about Jamie, and to discover who might have wanted him dead. Her investigation delves further into Jamie’s academic and personal life, as it becomes apparent that all is not as it seems. His sunny persona is betrayed by vlog posts that cast Jamie in a different light altogether, with anger and resentment bubbling to the surface. But what was Jamie railing against?

Vera is a British crime drama series based on the Vera Stanhope series of novels by Ann Cleeves. First broadcast on ITV on 1 May 2011, it stars Brenda Blethyn as the principal character, Detective Chief Inspector Vera Stanhope. It is distracting and belittling - even if it is just referencing a fictional character. I don't think we would ever want to treat real people in this manner! With the twelfth series concluding on 19 February 2023, in March 2023, it was confirmed that the show had been renewed for a thirteenth series. [1] Premise [ edit ]
