ACORN TV MAY 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

SIGNORA VOLPE (Acorn TV Original)
New Episodes on Mondays Beginning May 2

Top British spy Sylvia Fox (Emilia Fox, Silent Witness) is in Italy for her niece’s wedding when the groom goes missing, leaving a dead body behind him. Sylvia solves the mystery and falls in love – with Italy and with a crumbling old house on a hillside. Disillusioned with her job and longing to reconnect with her family, Sylvia decides to stay on and start a new life in the little town of Panicale.

But trouble has a habit of seeking Sylvia out, and she finds herself tackling a fresh mystery every week – and in the process, becoming increasingly close to handsome local cop Giovanni Riva (Giovanni Cerfiera, American Crime Story: Assassination of Gianni Versace.) Co-starring Tara Fitzgerald (Game of Thrones, Belgravia).

Season Finale on May 2

A routine raid led by a detective in the Irish Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB) reveals that a small-time drug dealer has been receiving substantial funding from a seemingly untraceable source – not in cash, but in rough diamonds. When these diamonds are linked to a series of bombings in Belgium, Detective Emer Berry (Angeline Ball, Acceptable Risk, Keeping Faith) is forced to work with Police Commissioner Christian De Jong (Wouter Hendrickx, Blackout, Undercover).

Eventually banding together, they unravel a political conspiracy fueling domestic unrest for financial gain. Caught up in this web of greed are the Brannigans, a wealthy Irish dynasty with ties to Antwerp. Drawn into a battle of wits with the family, Emer, Christian, and the CAB team must follow the money to stop another terrorist attack before it’s too late.
