Murder Call was an Australian drama series that aired from 1997 to 2000. It was based on the books of Tessa Vance by Jennifer Rowe, specifically Suspect/Deadline and Something Wicked. The show followed an unconventional team of homicide detectives, including Tessa Vance and Steve Hayden, as they investigated mysterious and often bizarre crimes in Sydney. The series combined elements of mystery, action, and suspense, with touches of humor and romance, set against a backdrop that included a mix of high-tech '90s aesthetics and retro charm.
The cast included Lucy Bell as Detective Tessa Vance, Peter Mochrie as Detective Steve Hayden, and Geoff Morrell as Senior Sergeant Lance Fisk. Supporting characters included Dr. Imogen Soames, played by Glenda Linscott, Constable Dee Suzeraine, portrayed by Jennifer Kent, and Detective Inspector Malcolm Thorne, played by Gary Day.
