I'm looking for something similar to Midsomer Murders. Dead bodies, don't know who the killer is until the end.
Anyone enjoy Brokenwood? TIA

Rotten Tomatoes
Fledgling detective Phryne Fisher is known for her sharp wit and pearl-handled pistol, which she uses to fight injustice in Melbourne during the 1920s. The glamorous sleuth makes her way through the city's alleyways and jazz clubs while she fights crime as part of a larger mission -- making sure that Murdoch Foyle, who she believes is responsible for the disappearance of her younger sister, stays behind bars. She fights for justice for people who can't help themselves, including exploited workers and missing girls.

Acorn and Britbox are loaded with British/Australian/New Zealand murder mysteries.
Also recommend Murdoch Mysteries.

Her unrequited love for Mike is a little heartbreaking, though.

Brokenwood is a good one and in fact it's the only one my wife watches.
