Get ready to return to the rolling hills and sun-drenched piazzas of Umbria as Signora Volpe is back for a gripping second series. The thrilling three-part crime drama once again stars Emilia Fox (Silent Witness) as the effortlessly sharp Sylvia Fox, a former British intelligence officer trying to live a quiet life in Italy. After the success of the first series, fans will be pleased to see the return of Tara Fitzgerald (Game of Thrones, Belgravia) as Sylvia's sister, Isabel Vitale, adding emotional depth to the story's blend of mystery and personal drama.
As series two opens, Sylvia is settling into her picturesque new life, working on the restoration of a countryside home. But her instincts as an investigator remain as sharp as ever. When a respected member of the local community turns up dead under suspicious circumstances, Sylvia is once again pulled into a world of secrets and danger. Her unofficial sleuthing soon leads to an even deeper risk when she takes on an undercover mission at a lavish house party linked to MI6.
The storylines escalate as Sylvia's relationship with Captain Riva (Giovanni Cirfiera) grows more intense. Their romantic connection deepens while their professional clashes create tension. When Sylvia becomes the target of someone long believed to be dead, her peaceful life is thrown into chaos. The danger becomes personal, and Sylvia's family must join forces with Riva to protect her before time runs out.
Set against the breathtaking Umbrian backdrop, Signora Volpe blends classic detective storytelling with heartfelt personal drama. Emilia Fox leads the cast with poise and wit, delivering a performance that balances intellect, vulnerability, and quiet strength. The cinematography captures both the warmth of the Italian countryside and the suspense that builds with every episode.
Whether you're drawn to the show for its captivating mysteries, its slow-burning romance, or the escapist setting, Signora Volpe offers all that and more. The series continues to build on its strong foundations with layered storytelling and a sense of place that feels both cinematic and intimate.
