DVD Description
This boxset contains five dramatisations of Minette Walters stories, featuring: The Ice House; The Scolds Bridle; The Echo; The Dark Room and The Sculptress What is it like to kill? What drives a man or a woman to such extremes? The stories journey through a kaleidoscope of human emotions: anger, hatred, bitterness, remorse, guilt, horror. In this psychological study of humanity on the edge of an abyss, some of the series' murderers get away with it, some of them don't. Amongst the subject matter is euthanasia, accidental murder, contract killing, revenge and even a sleepwalker who knows she's done something but not what or to whom.

Minette Walters Fans - An epic murder most foul 15 hours viewing,
This review is from: Minette Walters Collection Box Set [DVD] (DVD)
What an absolute treat this ensamble is.
Firstly of course I am an avid Minette Walters fan, having read almost all of her books, so what a delight to see the characters come alive on the TV screen. Although some reviews that I read where not all that impressed with all of the stories, I personally enjoyed every single one. I managed to watch them all one weekend. The Ice House of course was my favourite, however having said that, the sinister character played by Pauline Quirk in the Sculptress, which was one of the most bloody of the 5 movies, made me reluctant to sleep that night. The elfin beauty of the traumatised girl in The Dark Room left me with a deep feeling of empathy. Each episode released a different emotion in me, therefor making me appreciated the clever mind of the author of these books. My only hope is that the BBC will produce more of Minette's books as films and thus bring the devious mind of murderers onto the home screen once again. This purchase was well worth the buy.

Was going to order this from the Daily Mail but decided to check out the price on line. Found the exact same product at a much cheaper price here. Arrived within a resonible time scale and product was in perfect order, would buy again.
