NEW YORK - January 31, 2025 - Today, Acorn TV unveiled the trailer and key art for New Zealand mystery series A Remarkable Place to Die. Starring Chelsie Preston Crawford (Underbelly) and acclaimed Australian actress Rebecca Gibney (Under the Vines), the four-episode original series premieres Monday, February 17 on Acorn TV in the US and Canada, with new episodes releasing weekly.
A Remarkable Place To Die follows smart and determined homicide detective Anaís Mallory (Preston Crawford) as she returns to her hometown of Queenstown, New Zealand, assuming the role of lead detective and hoping to unravel the truth behind the deaths of her father and sister. Mallory has a stellar policing career under way after a secondment to Sydney, but she is forced to confront her strained relationship with her mother (Gibney) and the ghosts of her past, including her ex-fiancé Luke (Charles Jazz Terrier, Wentworth), who is now married to her ex-best friend, Maja (Indiana Evans, Home and Away). With a new case to solve every episode, it rapidly becomes apparent that there is plenty hidden beyond the breathtaking scenery of the tourist town. Secrets linger and danger is never too far away. As bodies start piling up around the once-safe place, Mallory and her team are thrust into a series of intriguing cases that bring into focus the tragedies that have beset her family. Plagued by the suspicion that her ex-fiancé might somehow be involved in their deaths, Mallory also realizes that her mother may know more than she is willing to reveal.
A Remarkable Place to Die is a Screentime New Zealand and Real Film co-production for ZDF, Acorn TV and TVNZ with support from the NZ Film Commission and NZ On Air. Executive producers include Philly de Lacey, Henning Kamm and Sibylle Stellbrink, along with Don Klees for Acorn TV, Emma John for TVNZ, Andy Ryan, and Laura Mae Harding and Maik Platzen for ZDF.
