An elderly village resident with exceptional powers of observation repeatedly encounters mysterious murders while visiting friends and relatives. Though local police may initially doubt her abilities, she applies her sharp intelligence and knowledge of human behavior to help unravel difficult cases.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like traditional British murder mysteries, atmospheric period settings, and varied adaptations; Not for you if you want consistently faithful source material or a forceful lead detective.
