Art Detectives sharpens its focus on motive and misdirection this week as a new case lands in Belfast. The episode, titled Ice Cold, begins streaming Monday, June 30, at 3:01 AM ET on Acorn TV.
A wealthy American collector is found poisoned just days before donating a rare trove of Titanic memorabilia. The setting is deliberate. Belfast, the city where the Titanic was built, provides both atmosphere and historical weight. Detectives Mick and Shazia are called in to unravel what looks like a targeted killing.
What follows is less about stolen art and more about who benefits from a legacy never delivered. The show uses its art world framing to dig into the stories people try to preserve—and the lengths others will go to stop them.
Stephen Moyer leads as Mick, a detective with sharp instincts and little patience for PR spin. Nina Singh plays Shazia, whose methodical approach balances the partnership. Their dynamic holds steady across the shifting tone of the case, which leans into false leads, questionable heirs, and deep financial stakes.
