In this Canadian production which is set in Maine the title role in Site Unseen: An Emma Fielding Mystery, Emma is played by American actress Courtney Thorne-Smith. She's an archaeologist following in the footsteps of her dad who was a world renown professor of archaeology. But during this film she must feel like Indiana Jones with all the bad things happening around her.
This is what you call a bait and switch mystery where you are led to believe the villain is one individual though he's trying real hard to pin two murders on Thorne-Smith and other crimes in order to shut down her dig. She's in Maine looking to find proof of an offshoot of Puritan colonists who were rumored to settle there and coincidentally enough it's where she grew up. She has a team of students that include Tess Atkins and Adam DiMarco and those two prove to be very valuable in more ways than just on the dig.
The ending was a real let down when the real villain tries to kill Thorne Smith. The jig was clearly up and even he had to see that.
Still this is a nice new entry into Hallmark's stable of with it professional red state women who take up mystery solving as an avocation.
