Entertaining enough and keeps your interest. The cast has great chemistry and the locations are beautiful. Only an 8 because of continuity, the leads are wearing the same clothes although supposedly a day or two has passed. Overall a good watch. I'm a mystery buff so I'm addicted to Hallmark Mysteries.

For me , this whole series is great entertainment . And this episode, I loved.

Firstly , there is something so likeable about both leads , Jesse Metcalfe and Sarah Lind work really well together , yes I know it's not Oscar winning stuff, but, it kept me gripped and guessing !

The location is just beautiful , whether it is Martha's Vineyard or British Colombia, it is still stunning in my eyes !

I do recommend ,not just this episode, but all four , well worth a watch.

Light entertainment , good characters , and some mysteries to solve !

And of course, a georgous location ( wish I was there ) !!

I feel pretty much like I did after the first movie in this series.

Police procedures seem pretty lax especially with Jeff running around entering private property, questioning and chasing suspects and other things police are authorized to do. But he's not officially on the force and he doesn't announce that he is authorized by the police. And he takes Zee with him half the time, but at least she's the coroner.

The whodunit keeps the viewers on their toes. Like the first movie, the pool of suspects gets fairly large and there are some good red herrings. I thought I knew who the bad guy was until he was the first one dead. There were some interesting twists toward the end, especially about the broach.

Jeff and Zee are into flirt mode, but I'm still not impressed with the chemistry. Each one almost comes straight out and says to the other with little preamble "tell me your most personal secrets". That's one of the problems when there is a lot going on in a two hour TV movie - there's not a lot of time for being subtle in the relationships.

You know the main characters and you discover new details about their past. And the broche with emeralds is a good start point for new suspence slice, suppositions, apparences and just good end. It is just nice to discover crime in style of Hallmark. Because it works more than decent, because you suppose than Bob can be a better police man than chief Madieras ( but the kind ingenuity of the last works so nice ... ) and because the romance story has few very inspired sparkles. So , the emeralds and tartar sauce as good ingredients.

Zee's friend Britt Prajna has recovered The Lakshmi Emeralds, a $5 million brooch, which her family lost long ago. A masked man breaks into Britt's home to steal the jewels and sends her to the hospital. Jeff and Zee go on the search for the thief.

I am more convinced than ever that Jesse Metcalfe and Sarah Lind don't have the required chemistry. The franchise should have switched her and Chelsea Hobbs. Somebody screwed up the casting process. It would be daring for Jeff to get into a love triangle. That may be the best way to generate more romance energy and quite frankly, it would be a good departure for this type of show to have more complicated romance. As for the mystery, it's fine for this type of TV movies. This franchise is more likely to rise and fall due to the romance rather than the mysteries.

6/10 - run-of-the-mill HMM makes for a decent night-in

Dr. Zee Madieras's friend, Britt Prajna (Sunita Prasad), takes center stage in this latest movie, or rather her long-lost family heirloom does. The Lakshmi Emeralds, a dazzling brooch worth $5 million, arrives at the Vineyard after being pulled from sale at a Boston auction house. Britt plans to showcase them at her own Pendray Hotel and has invited the town's elite to join her, but disaster soon strikes. Not even a full day has passed before Britt is attacked in her home, the brooch is stolen, and someone winds up dead.

A fairly strong entry centred around the theft of a Rajasthani emerald which leads to murder and intrigue. Jesse Metcalfe is on the case again after saying he is retired hundred times to the police chief and he assisted by the charismatic and beautiful Sarah Lind. Love her face expressions.

Jesse Metcalfe is back in this thrilling Martha's Vineyard movie mystery series. This second installation revolves around a priceless brooch being stolen. Just when you think you have it figured out, the person you pegged for doing it ends up dead! The twists and turns in this movie make it very exciting! Terrific acting, great storyline and the cinematography is outstanding! Don't mess this suspenseful, fun movie!

This series isn't the best Hallmark has to offer, but it's okay.

This one is the second in the series.

This story concerns a family emerald broach worth a fortune. Jeff (Jesse Metcalfe) keeps being dragged out of law enforcement retirement, this time to help protect the broach and its wearer Britt (Sunita Prasad) who has presented it and is wearing it to a special event.

Though she wants to take it with her, Jeff convinces her to lock it in the high tech safe for the night. However, when she arrives home, she is attacked and is only saved by Jeff and Zee (Sarah Lind). And the emerald broach is gone from the safe.

Murder follows.

I've never been overwhelmed by Jesse Metcalfe even in his Desperate Housewives days. It was hard for me to warm up to the story or the characters.

I like that the characters' personal stories continue through the series and connect them, although the plots are different, so it's not necessary to see them in order if you don't want to. It was suspenseful and mostly unpredictable.

We really enjoyed this, though I figured out who did it by....I'm not going to say, you figure it out. The leads had very nice chemistry and looked good together, they were believable.

The reviews say this was filmed in British Columbia...duh and the settings were beautiful. Too bad it wasn't filmed in Martha's Vineyard like it was supposed to.

Worth watching.

I loved this movie! Well-taken mystery that keeps you interested and engaged. Interesting story, terrific acting and some nice shots. Would recommend!

Hall mark Finally used a guy as its 'expert detective', and it is extremely unnoteworthy --U lose track of what is going on after awhile, too many names, too much he/she dialogue in restaurants ---at least its not immersed in smoochy

--I guess women will enjoy it due to the man meat main actor

--But at the end of the day, if U like well thought out mysteries with interesting clues and so on, avoid this one

--I also found the male lead to literally be getting in other men's faces too much, my wife thought the same thing

-Lousy direction I suppose

The mystery was a little better in this episode, but there is starting to be some recurring bits that are starting to be annoying. For example, I am tired of the references to his injury that has left a bullet in his back...he has back pain and was forced to retire from his job...we got it! And I am tired of the recurring dream of the night he got shot and lost his partner, either solve that mystery or move on...it is getting boring.

Not a very big supporting cast and the romance is REALLY dragging. I am having a nap over here!

Usually I love hallmark mystery series, with few exceptions...but this one just isn't doing it for me. Sorry. Can't recommend this mystery series.
