Recipes For Love & Murder: Acorn TV Series Set for September Debut
Award-winning actress Maria Doyle Kennedy(Outlander, Orphan Black, The Tudors, Kin) stars in the dangerously delicious Acorn TV Original mystery drama, Recipes for Love & Murder, premiering Monday, September 5, with two episodes on Acorn TV, AMC Networks' acclaimed streamer devoted to British and international television.
Based on Sally Andrew's best-selling "A Tannie Maria Mystery" novels, the ten-part series follows a newspaper recipe advice columnist, Tannie Maria ("Auntie Maria" in Afrikaans), who offers guidance and counsel and helps investigate crimes in her small town in the vibrant, beautiful region of the Karoo in South Africa. Two new episodes will premiere weekly every Monday through October 3.

When the local newspaper cuts her recipe column, Tannie Maria (Kennedy) lobbies to take on the role of advice columnist. Things take an unexpected turn when a correspondent who writes to Maria about her abusive husband is found dead. Maria's worlds collide as she begins working through her own mysterious past, trying to solve the case. Maria joins forces with a local, risk-taking, rookie journalist and sometimes rival, Jessie September (newcomer Kylie Fisher), to investigate the murder and catch the killer–before the local police find more victims. But will they make too many enemies in the process and risk the perpetrator catching them first? Meanwhile, Maria comforts her readers by blending experiential advice with soothing recipes—truly chicken soup for the soul.
