Anthony Horowitz adapted his own Susan Ryeland novels. Each limited series covers one book: the 2022 series adapts Magpie Murders, and the 2024 follow-up Moonflower Murders adapts the second novel. They are made as separate limited series that share a cast and continuity, so they read as a de-facto first and second season.
