Set amidst the steep cliffs and fast tides of Capri, A Taste for Murder features classic Italian cuisine as the main ingredient to each episode's central murder mystery, revealing the power of food to foster connection, community, and healing after devastating loss.

DCI Joe Mottram is a star detective with the Metropolitan police. After a personal tragedy, he retreats to Capri with his daughter to stay with his Italian in-laws for the summer. Unsure how to face his own grief, let alone help heal his daughter's broken heart, he quickly becomes immersed in the local murder cases on the island.
