Plot

In the tranquil yet captivating Lancashire countryside, Hetty Wainthropp, an energetic and sharp-witted 60-year-old pensioner, wakes up on her birthday with an unexpected resolution: she will become a private investigator. Driven by the need to make ends meet, and a burning desire to save a local teen runaway from a life of delinquency, Hetty plunges headfirst into her new vocation, much to the disapproval of her unemployed husband. Undeterred, Hetty, with the aid of her husband, Robert, and the aforementioned teenager named Geoffrey, embarks on a thrilling journey of solving mysteries. The trio delves into the less-explored crimes that the local police force shows little interest in, painting a vibrant tableau of detective work in their quaint little village. Using a blend of unyielding resolve, common sense, and an uncanny knack for investigation, Hetty leads her unconventional team on this uncommon mission. Hetty Wainthropp is not just a pensioner looking for a new challenge, she is a force of nature, relentless and unstoppable, transforming into the most unlikely yet compelling private detective the Lancashire countryside has ever seen.
