Sister Boniface Mysteries, Christmas Special: The Star of the Orient, on Britbox, also serves as the first episode of Season 3 with a longer feature-length running time. If you are following our series, you'll remember that we've categorized this show as Cozy Mystery. And the Christmas Special is super cozy indeed!
We see Sister Boniface returning home to her parents obstensibly to help out while her mother has a broken elbow. However, her parents are atheists and Sister is not too enthused about spending Christmas holidays in such an unjoyful environment. She sets out on a train and the mystery begins!
A jewel is stolen and a body is discovered! DI Gillespie, also traveling on the train, naturally enlists Sister Boniface to help solve the crime. It's all very Wilkie Collins meets Agatha Christie. The train investigation is intercut with goings-on in Great Slaughter so we don't miss our favorite characters. Keep an eye out for a few career British actors such as Timothy West and Rupert Vansittart.
Enjoy this feature-length Christmas special as an introduction to Season 3 of Sister Boniface Mysteries on Britbox!
