With the support of her teenaged sidekick, Geoffrey (Dominic Monaghan, Lost, The Lord of the Rings trilogy), and devoted husband, Robert (Derek Benfield, Rumpole of the Bailey), she grows from a most unlikely sleuth into an experienced and respected detective. This collection captures Hetty’s sleuthing career in one set—including episodes not seen on the PBS Mystery! broadcast. Her old-fashioned common sense and unfailing compassion make Hetty a detective to be reckoned with—and to cherish. Episodes previously released on DVD
