Full reviewAustralian mystery-adventure, based on the ABC TV show and original novels by Kerry Greenwood. After freeing a young Bedouin girl from imprisonment in Jerusalem, Phryne Fisher (Essie Davis) begins to unravel a decade-old mystery concerning priceless emeralds, ancient curses and the truth behind the suspicious disappearance of Shirin's forgotten tribe.
