The hour of our death
Shadow Of Death (Sister Agnes) (Sister Agnes)
The exile
A whiff of scandal
Also an English village outsider stirring up gossip and suspicion, but played for comedy and romance rather than abuse and murder.
Night Music
Keeps the English setting and a woman rebuilding after a marriage ends, though grief and slow-burn romance replace criminal investigation.
Foreign Fruit
Shares the small-town English scrutiny and secrets, but the tension is forbidden love and class, gentler and more nostalgic than the seed's violence.
