Dalgliesh Season 3 arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Dalgliesh Season 3 treats its mystery as a means, not an end in itself. Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh investigates the death of Alice Liddell who ran a home for unwed mothers. One of those residents is Sally Jupp who was a witness in a drugs smuggling and murder investigation in London. Sally works at the local manor house for the Maxies and it is apparent that eldest son Stephen has more than just a passing interest in her. Roy Marsden leads a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 1985. What makes Dalgliesh Season 3 hold up is that the resolution matters less than how the characters get there. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Crime and mystery fans will find exactly what they are after in Dalgliesh Season 3. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. The complete run is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. Roy Marsden anchors it, but the writing does the real work. If you are going to commit to one crime drama this month, make it this one.
