Have you ever picked up something at an estate sale or an antique shop and wondered where it came from, and how it got there? Or imagined the epic journey it must have gone on like the instrument at the heart of the movie, The Red Violin? I'm probably alone in this, but maybe I'm not. With all the weird knickknacks I've amassed over the years from estate sales and antique shops, I would hope that none of the stuff I've collected was involved in a murder. But you never know. Though I suppose Madame Blanc would know. 

The Madame Blanc Mysteries season 4 will begin streaming on Acorn TV on July 7, 2025. The season will consist of 7 episodes, each 60 minutes in length. It will also include a Christmas special, which is exciting! It remains to be seen whether The Madame Blanc Mysteries will be the only show this year with a Christmas special planned. 

For season 4 of The Madame Blanc Mysteries, Sally Lindsay hops back into the saddle as a widow named Jean White who moves to a beach town called Sainte Victoire, where she encounters not only incredible antiques, but ghastly murders. Imagine your special interest leading you to uncover a string of murders. The drama!
