Crunch Time, Invisible Lady
Crunch Time
Since the very start, the harrowing 18-year mystery of Madeleine McCann has been a rollercoaster of high hopes and devastating realities. But right now it's crunch time for the most high-profile child abduction case in history. This week, acting on information from German investigators, police have swarmed on a stretch of Portuguese coastline, close to where the British toddler vanished from her parents' holiday apartment in 2007. They've been desperately searching for evidence, in a race against the clock to prevent the looming freedom of the prime suspect in the case, German paedophile and rapist Christian Brueckner. And, as Tara Brown reports, in this special 60 Minutes investigation, they're not the only ones determined to keep this vile predator behind bars.

Invisible Lady
It is one of the most curious questions being asked of Donald Trump's second term in office. Where on Earth is Melania? While the US President has barely been out of the news, the First Lady has been utterly conspicuous by her absence. Since her husband's inauguration five months ago, Melania has largely given Washington DC a body-swerve, appearing at just a handful of official public engagements. Her defiance of presidential protocol and longstanding White House traditions has been met with head-scratching, scorn and plaudits in equal measure. So where has the First Lady gone? And what does her disappearing act mean for her 20-year marriage with the world's most powerful man?

Bookish
London, 1946 is the dynamic, dangerous and chaotic setting for this stylish new detective drama, with the eccentric Gabriel Book at the very heart of the story: a self-appointed consultant detective to the local police. The thousands of books that line the shelves of his shop provide him with all the knowledge he needs.
Book has gathered around him a host of lovable, damaged misfits whom he informally protects, cajoles, and mentors. His wife Trottie runs the wallpaper shop next door. She's a charismatic adventuress whom Book loves deeply but not physically, for they are in a 'lavender' marriage to help conceal Book's sexual orientation in a time when it was illegal to be gay.
Bookish marries post-war nostalgia with the reckless and life-affirming atmosphere of the times, creating a fast-paced and stylish detective drama.
