Murdoch Mysteries is set in Toronto in the late 1890s and early 1900s during the age of invention, where methodical Detective William Murdoch (Yannick Bisson) and his impassioned wife, Dr. Julia Ogden (Hélène Joy), enlist radical forensic techniques like fingerprinting and ultraviolet light to solve a range of gruesome murders.
