The Big Picture
- Hallmark is venturing into period piece mysteries with Murder at the Breakers, based on Alyssa Maxwell's Gilded Newport Mysteries series.
- The film, set in late 19th and early 20th century Newport, follows journalist Emma Cross as she solves mysteries within the dark side of the Gilded Age elite.
- With the potential for a whole saga, Hallmark could continue adapting the remaining 11 books in the series if the first film proves successful.
