Though Travis can’t discuss his investigation, he and Amy banter playfully while she waits for her student Lacey, who doesn’t show. Fearing Lacey is in trouble when her boyfriend turns up dead, and connecting a colleague’s “suicide” with the plant theft, Amy unravels both mysteries, and risks her life. Now Travis must sleuth fast, or his blooming romance with Amy could die on the vine.

    1. Hello Brittany! I'm not sure how the movies work in Canada, but we are supposed to have the premieres of three new Aurora movies in the United States sometime in the Fall. Do they usually air soon after they premiere here?

    1. You'll be happy to know there are THREE movies in the "Goodnight for Justice" movie series starring Luke Perry. The last one premiered in 2013. Amazon has them on DVD - *HERE!*

      I'm not anticipating any other films from this series, at this point, but you never know!

  7. Off topic, but why did Hallmark not show the Emma Fielding mystery movie on Sunday?

    1. Hallmark moved/postponed the premiere date to February 10th, with a "Chronicle Mysteries" preview special to follow. I noticed my DirecTV guide still had the Emma Fielding premiere listed on Sunday night; I guess DirecTV didn't get the memo on it.

  8. WOW....Mysteriously soooooooooooo GOOD

    Jill and Kris did it again. They are sooooo much fun to watch, all that bantering, etc. I hope this is will be the beginning of HMM Mystery Series with these two actors. They have an unbelievable chemistry onscreen. Hallmark, are you listening???

  9. I was counting down the days until Mystery 101 could be viewed on the Hallmark Mys & Mov channel. The movie did not disappoint. Jill Wagner and Kristoffer Polaha are great together. Worth a second viewing for sure.

  11. Is there a way to find out where to purchase clothing & accessories from Mystery 101? I really like one of the eyeglasses that she wears - large, tortoise framed reading glasses.
    Thanks!

    1. Unfortunately, there's not one press photo of Jill wearing the glasses. Hallmark and IMDB revealed the costume designer is Florence Barrett. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4496578/

      She has her own web-site - https://www.flomaybarrett.com with a contact page! Perhaps, you could contact her to see.

      Hope this helps!
