Acorn TV’s “The Chelsea Detective” returns with another perplexing case for Detective Inspector Max Arnold and Detective Sergeant Layla Walsh. “Myths and Legends,” dropping Monday at 3:01 AM ET/PT, finds the duo investigating the death of antiques dealer Niall Hammond, found lifeless in his own shop.
The discovery of a rare gold coin, recently purchased by Hammond and valued at a staggering one million pounds, immediately suggests a possible motive: robbery gone wrong. But as Max and Layla dig deeper, they uncover a trove of family secrets that complicate the narrative. The investigation leads them into the world of a prestigious music society and even to the mudlarks scouring the Thames foreshore for hidden treasures.
“Myths and Legends” weaves together a complex web of potential suspects and hidden motives. Max and Layla must sift through the truth and lies to find their killer. As with any good antiques mystery, the question becomes: what’s real, and what’s a clever forgery?
