What Season 10 of Murder, She Wrote

Jessica Fletcher is a retired English teacher who, after being widowed in the early fifties, starts writing mystery novels. She lives in Cabot Cove, a Maine town where much of the story unfolds. Soon crimes surround her, both in her town and in other parts of the United States and abroad, and she ends up helping to solve them. Angela Lansbury stars as Jessica in every episode of this CBS series, created by Richard Levinson, William Link, and Peter S. Fischer. Each case mixes a range of suspects with the wit of a writer who observes and asks questions.
