The Show's Premise
The series takes place in Dolphin Cove, a picture-perfect Australian beach town with a dark underbelly. Think "Death in Paradise" but with kangaroos instead of iguanas!
Meet Detective Mackenzie Clarke
Our star is Detective Mackenzie Clarke, a brilliant Aussie who made a name for herself with the London police. But now, she's reluctantly back in her hometown, where she's not exactly everyone's favorite.
Mackenzie's Got Baggage...And a Murder to Solve
Mackenzie swore she'd never return to Dolphin Cove, but a murder throws her right back into the drama. Despite her hesitation, she can't resist using her detective skills to find the killer. To complicate things, she also has to deal with unfinished business, including the ex-fiancé she left behind!
Will It Be a Hit Like the Other Spin-Offs?
"Death in Paradise" has already spawned a successful UK spin-off called "Beyond Paradise." With its mix of intriguing mysteries and gorgeous scenery, "Return to Paradise" has all the ingredients for another hit!
What the Creators Are Saying
The show's producers are hyped about "Return to Paradise." They promise the same clever mysteries and fun detective that we love, but with a fresh Aussie flavor.
