如果你正在犹豫要不要看，我可以告诉你：这一季依然是“乡村命案教科书”级别的表现——每个案子都像拆解一件精密的古董钟表，线索藏在村民的闲谈、花园的剪刀、甚至教堂的唱诗班名单里，叙事不急不躁，却处处埋着反转。有个案子围绕小镇音乐节展开，嫌疑人藏在合唱团里，你一边听他们唱赞美诗，一边琢磨谁会是凶手，那种平静下的暗流特别挠心。这一季中，老搭档们依旧默契，新角色也带来意想不到的变数。这一季的案子依然安插在英国乡村的静谧风光里，绿树成荫的庄园、古旧的教堂墓地，可一转头，尸体就躺在玫瑰花丛下。案子一个接一个，全是村里那些鸡毛蒜皮的恩怨，到最后揭开真相时你准会“啊哈”一声，够意外，又不离谱。剧情呢，表面看着是普通杀人案，但总在最后十几分钟给你来个反转，挺过瘾的。

　　Bullying snob Alistair Kingslake is killed with a golf iron at the Whiteacres golf club. After another member, Miles Tully, tells Barnaby about illegal gambling among players, another member, who has had an 'odd phone call' is also slain. A figure in a blue tracksuit is seen at both murders. In fact there have been unreported assaults on members over the months. Barnaby discovers that the gambling is rife and the social-climbing steward , Mrs. Fountain, and her two warring sons are lending money to the gamblers and assaulting them if they fail to pay. Indeed Mrs. Fountain's scheming has driven the killer to commit the Dogleg Murders.
