"The Paraverse’s first lead female detective Mackenzie Clarke is forced to leave London under a cloud of suspicion and return back to the last place she ever wanted to be, her hometown of Dolphin Cove, Australia," reads the synopsis.
"Having fled the town six years ago, infamously leaving her ex- fiancée Glenn at the altar, Mackenzie is not welcome back. But with no other job options and a compulsion for solving mysteries, a reluctant Mackenzie joins the team at Dolphin Cove Police Station.

It concludes: "Once a case lands on her desk, she can’t rest until she’s figured it out and the killer is in handcuffs. It’s that tenacity and work ethic that might just, over time, help Mackenzie win over her new colleagues and the people of Dolphin Cove."
As the new trailer shows, Mackenzie travels home where she receives a cold welcome. After a body is found on the beach, the DI is brought on board to investigate.
While the latest addition to the paraverse is yet to receive a release date, filming wrapped in July 2024, making an autumn debut likely. It will be available on BBC One and iPlayer in the UK, along with ABC and ABC iview in Australia.
Return to Paradise is awaiting a release date. Death in Paradise and its spin-off, Beyond Paradise, both air on BBC One and stream on BBC iPlayer.
